Francesca Verones is Professor at the Industrial ecology Programme of NTNU. Her work centers around developing life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) models to quantify human impacts on our ecosystems.

Marthe Alnes Høiberg is a PhD candidate at the Industrial ecology Programme of NTNU. She works on developing models to account for impacts of plastic debris on marine ecosystems in life cycle impact assessments (LCIA).

Naiara is a PhD student in the New University of Lisbon and affiliated with the ATLANTIS project. She will be working on developing a characterization factor for quantification of the impact caused by plastic debris ingestion on marine biodiversity within life cycle impact assessment.

Philip is a PhD student at the Industrial Ecology Programme of NTNU. He works on modelling the impacts of invasive species on marine ecosystems. Invasive species are often introduced to their new environment by transport in the global shipping sector or through rafting (e.g., attached to plastic debris). Newly introduced species that meet no or few challenges in an ecosystem may harm the biodiversity by outcompeting other species, over-feeding, or transmitting new diseases, amongst other things. These impacts need to be quantified if we are to apply a holistic view of anthropogenic impacts on life in our oceans and will be done so within the LCA framework.
His current assignment is to develop the characterization factors that will allow a quantification of the impacts from invasive species. He has a BSc in Environmental Engineering from DTU (Vand, bioressourcer og miljømanagement) followed by a Nordic Master in Environmental Engineering (Residual Resources, DTU/NTNU) which he finished in summer 2021.

Fei is a PhD candidate at the Industrial Ecology Programme of NTNU with a background in Environmental Engineering, Ecology and Finance. She works on modelling human impacts on marine ecosystem services, especially related to the impacts of invasive species and marine plastic debris.

Martin Dorber is a researcher at the Industrial ecology Programme of NTNU. His research focuses on developing models to account for human impacts on marine ecosystems in life cycle impact assessments (LCIA). This includes plastic debris, invasive species and in particular ecosystems services. His current task is to model how plastic litter is transported to and in the ocean.

Catherine is a research assistant in the Industrial Ecology group at NTNU. Through her academic degree, from a B.Sc in Chemistry and an M.Sc in Ocean Resources, plastic pollution was a central team for her research experience. From testing mechano-enzymatic chemistry for plastics degradation to using waste from the pulp and paper industry for bioplastics production, she recently implemented a rapid and more repeatable method for surface marine microplastics sampling and analysis. As part of the Atlantis project, she will try to input how plastic waste reaches the ocean.

Gregor Amani is a master's student at the Industrial Ecology programme of NTNU with a background in water and waste management. His work deals with approaches to reduce the inflow of plastic into the Norwegian sea.

Sunniva Andrine Hellesund is a master's student in the Industrial Ecology programme at NTNU in Trondheim. Her background include a BSc in renewable energy from HVL in Sogndal. She works on quantifying the spatially explicit entanglement impacts of marine species within the life cycle assessment framework.

Samuel Voorwalt is a master's student studying Industrial Ecology at the NTNU in Trondheim with a background in Technology, Policy and Management. He works on the inclusion of indicators for marine tourism as a cultural ecosystem service in LCA.
