That we need to do definitely is keep these plastics from entering the oceans because thats where they both break down most quickly and particular its a big problem particularly in asia we need to keep them out of. the waterways and from reaching the oceans in the 1st place and then obviously we also need to think about long term about new plastics that break down all the way to the molecular level that dont just break down into smaller and smaller pieces but they can break down to be absorbed b...

A key role in transporting plastic has implications not just for pristine environments but also for human health. our science reporter derek rowlands put together that story is with us in our studio now for more hi derek so how can micro plastics be harmful to human health well the chemicals that are used in the elements that are used to to make plastics which have to have a very wide variety of of characteristics theyre often toxic for example p.v.c. has as flooring that which is which in great...

The diagram contains data of great interest to modern day reset has some climate and ecology. but now it team of scientists has found some discrepancies in the data we talked on skype with french research it. was currently on an expedition in ecuador and i asked him why hes so interested in the temple of physic. working with colleagues. on. climate change on high altitude organisms. we soon realized it was necessary thats good of research. sure gets as old information as we care so historical ol...

If this is a net is called a bongo net because it looks like a bongo drum and. we use this larger one mainly to capture fish eggs and larvae fish. found. this one catches all kinds of zooplankton and the baby bongo captures very small organisms and jelly fish are caught by all of the nets. but defining. the captain of the down a is setting the course for the night. to be able to compare the results long term bastiaan who have their heads to the same coordinates each time only. if we zoom in agai...

Dioxide in the atmosphere since the industrial revolution the worlds oceans have absorbed half of the carbon dioxide. gas dissolves in the oceans reducing their ph values and our oceans are becoming more acidic. all organisms with a calcium based skeleton are in danger because the acidic water dissolves limestone . jellyfish dont have a scale and therefore the acidification of the oceans isnt a problem for them they survive. jennifer herself describes further negative effects. the high amount of...

Eels. the multi net is lifted on board. it gathers samples from several depths between 0 and 400 meters. plankton experts cornelia aspers skills are needed. after hours of rinsing counting classifying. it becomes clear which organisms contribute to the food chain out here as our fossil see. yeah funny. we catch small in love and cut them open we remove the stomach and use molecular methods to determine what they eat jellyfish dont have skeletons as a result they get digested immediately that mak...

Running long term marine data collection programs. the scientists collect water and plankton samples. if environmental conditions change could impact the composition of ocean plankton a change jellyfish might benefit from living through that we know that jellyfish polyps are very resistant to changes in the environment and that means that the polyps survive environmental conditions that other organisms cannot. understand about even on. the atlantic. to circuses see which is situated far off the ...

Methods so that we can find out what gelatinous organisms are in the eels stomachs we also examine which gelatinous organisms are in the water and then hopefully we can match the 2 puzzle maybe buy ins on some meds or. do we deal larvae eat jellyfish. proving that is difficult. the meticulous counting job on board is only the 1st step for the researchers. analyzing the data will take several years only then will the results be ready for publication. are jellyfish barter for the fish we eat estab...

Waters. increasing air pollution as a result of industry and traffic is leaving its mark. there is too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since the industrial revolution the worlds oceans have absorbed half of the carbon dioxide. the gas dissolves in the oceans reducing their ph values and. our oceans are becoming more acidic. all organisms with a calcium based skeleton are in danger because the acidic water dissolves limestone . jellyfish dont have a scale and therefore the acidification of ...

A result they get digested immediately that makes it really hard to use normal methods like microscopes to find traces of such organisms but now we have molecular methods so that we can find out what gelatinous organisms are in the stomachs. we also examine which gelatinous organisms are in the water. and then hopefully we can match the 2 puzzle maybe bidens on some maps or. do evil larvae eat jellyfish. proving that is difficult. the meticulous counting job on board is only the 1st step for the...
