Multidisciplinary analysis of microplastic dynamics: from sources to environmental fate in urban rivers during floods

Florence Research (University of Florence) 2025
Martuscelli Daniele

Summary

Researchers conducted a multidisciplinary investigation of microplastic dynamics in urban rivers, combining flume experiments on riparian vegetation, polymer-specific quantification using PLE-Py-GC/MS, and a catchment-scale connectivity model to map land-to-river microplastic transport within the Arno basin.

Study Type Environmental

This thesis investigates microplastic dynamics across scales, combining flume experiments on riparian vegetation, polymer-specific quantification with PLE–Py-GC/MS, and a catchment-scale connectivity model. It clarifies MP retention mechanisms, improves analytical reliability, and maps land-to-river MP transport from multiple sources within the Arno basin.
