Project description
The project aims to understand the impact of microplastics (MPs) pollution on the structure and functioning of the pelagic microbial food webs. Plastics pollution is considered a major threat to biodiversity and human survival. The ecosystem-level consequences of the MP pollution on microbial trophic interactions remain poorly studied and understood. In presented project, we aim to verify two hypotheses concerning the effect of MPs on bacteria and bacterivorous protists: (i) leakage from MPs provide a carbon source for bacteria; (ii) passage of MPs through food vacuoles of bacterivorous protists increases their quality as a carbon source for bacteria. These hypotheses will be verified in a series of whole-microbial community manipulation experiments combined with the addition of MPs of different polymer types.
Deadlines:
The application is opened until filled. The starting date will be negotiated with the selected candidates, with the preference for the earliest start.
How to apply:
All documents should be sent as a single pdf file to rekrutacja@mir.gdynia.pl. Subject Post-doc -SONATA-BIS.
