Our polar regions are often considered to be pristine untouched waters, largely due their remoteness and lack of civilization, yet both the Arctic and Antarctica are subject to local pollution from tourism, fishing and research activities. On today’s episode, we sit down with Sarah Reed, ships ops manager and technician at the Scottish Association for Marine Science, to chat about her recent paper on microplastics in marine sediments near Rothera Research Station, Antarctica.

Episode 11: Sailfish, SSTs and publishing your first paper with Meredith Pratt
Breaking boundaries as an undergraduate student, Meredith is an fisheries research student at Nova Southeastern University in Florida, who had the opportunity to do her own research on sailfish and sea surface temperature. In this episode, we discuss Meredith’s paper, titled: Atlantic Sailfish (Istiophorus albicans) Distribution off the East Coast of Florida from 2003 to 2018 in Response to Sea Surface Temperature.
