The joint project MikrOMIK is aiming at a comprehensive analysis of microplastic in the Baltic Sea, focusing on the microbial populations colonizing the plastic particles. So far, only rough estimations of the abundance and distribution of microplastic in the Baltic Sea exist, and nothing is known about the interaction between microplastic and microorganisms in this ecosystem. Milestones of MikrOMIK are:
(I) A first-time analysis of the distribution, potential sources and sinks of microplastic in the Baltic Sea.
(II) The determination of the role of microplastic as substrate for specific microbial populations and their functions.
(III) The assessment of health risks for the littoral states of the Baltic Sea, emanating from microplastic as a vector for pathogenic microorganisms.
