Author Correction: Nanoplastic concentration and potential transport in the Arctic Ocean
Summary
This is simply a correction notice fixing a typo in a research paper about nanoplastics in the Arctic Ocean, the original paper had a math error, stating that 19-230 million tons of plastic waste enters our waterways yearly, when it should have read 19-23 million tons. While that's still a staggering amount of pollution, no actual scientific findings changed here, just the number in the introduction.
In this article, a typographical error was in the Introduction section (line 1): ‘Plastic pollution is a global issue, with 19–230 million tons of plastic waste entering aquatic ecosystems each year¹.’ should read ‘Plastic pollution is a global issue, with 19–23 million tons of plastic waste entering aquatic ecosystems each year¹.’. The original article has been corrected.
