Add to ORKGMicroplastic pollution is a ubiquitous threat in the marine environment. The ingestion of microscopic debris (<5 mm) by marine zooplankton is a phenomenon of high ecological concern. This thesis presents new information regarding the ingestion of microplastics by marine zooplankton. The calanoid copepod, Centropages typicus, abundant in North Atlantic and Mediterranean coastal waters was found to ingest Polyamide-6 Nylon powder (μ = 30 μm), Polyethylene microbeads (μ = 20 μm) and artificial rope fibres (μ = 14.76 μm) that had been labelled with RADGLO fluorescent powder (475 nm) in the presence and absence of natural prey. Feeding experiments were conducted upon four zooplankton species; Acartia tonsa, Porcellanid larvae, Calanus helgolandi...
