    Microplastic pollution in the Thumbprint emperor (Lethrinus harak) from Tanzanian coastal waters: Occurrence, abundance, characterization, and relevance as a monitoring species

    In the present study we collected the Thumbprint emperor (Lethrinus harak) from seven landing sites from the coastal waters around Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar (Tanzania) to (i) quantify and characterize microplastics (MPs) in their digestive tracts and (ii) use previously assessed environmental levels in nearshore surface waters and seabed sediments to determine whether L. harak could be a relevant biomonitor for MP pollution in the region. L. harak (n=387) had an overall frequency of occurrence (FO%) of 48 % and displayed spatial variation between sites with Kunduchi (FO=66.7 %) and Mijimwena (FO=17.1 %) having the highest and lowest FO%, respectively. Fish from Mjimwema had a mean MP content of 0.17 ± 0.38 MPs individual-1 whilst fish from Kizimkazi had the highest MP abundance (1.75 ± 2.33 MPs individual-1). Fibers (overall 64.7 %, range across sites 48–86 %) and fragments (17.9 %, 5–25 %) were the most dominant MP types whilst black (46.9 %, 40–58 %) and blue (22.5%, 7–36 %) MPs were the most common colours. Fish length (ρ= -0.09, p=0.09) or weight (ρ=0.07, p=0.18) did not significantly correlate to MP abundance in fish (Spearman rank correlations). Neither MP occurrence nor abundance was linked to MP concentrations in either surface waters or seabed sediments (Spearman rank correlation), but MPs in the fish better reflected MPs in the sediment compared to surface water (two-way ANOVA on ranked data). Whilst L. harak presents as a promising candidate to monitor MP pollution along the East African coast due to its ecology, overall, it lacks reliability. Nonetheless, the present study fills important knowledge gaps both geographically on the East African Coast and with an underrepresented taxonomic family (Lethrinidae ‘Emporer fishes’)

    Forud for etablering af transformatorstation og vejareal foretog Museum Sydøstdanmark en større forundersøgelse af 3,25 ha blokareal for bygherre Nexel. Der fremkom spredte spor efter oldtidsbebyggelse i perferierne af undersøgelsesområdet. Mod nordøst blev der erkendt spor efter to huse i form af to sæt tagbærende stolpesæt i hver sit hus, som antageligt fortsætter ud for undersøgelsesarealet mod øst. Mod sydøst blev der erkendt et hus med tilhørende aktivitet. Et område på 2300 m2 mod sydøst indstilles til en egentlig arkæologisk undersøgelse. Resten blev udgravet indenfor forundersøgelsens rammer. Der blev yderligere taget jordprøver fra det nordlige område med henblik på videre analyse, da området nord for formentlig skal anvendes af en anden bygherre (Energinet
