The MERITE-HIPPOCAMPE project (oceanographic cruise in April- May 2019) aims at studying the interactions between plankton and contaminants (metallic, organic plastics) at atmosphere/water/biota interfaces via a North-South trans-Mediterranean approach in contrasted areas (primary production, fishing zones, ecoregions, polluted bays). The target contaminants are on the lists of priority pollutants and substances of Regional Conventions (OSPAR) and EU directives (WFD, MSF). The expected results are to provide a better understanding of the transfer processes of contaminants from water to the first pelagic trophic levels PY 2019 SO Rapports et procès verbaux des réunions SN 0373-434X PU Commission internationale pour l'exploration scientifique de la mer Méditerranée VL 42 ID 71132 ER EF
