Summary

This entry describes a crowdfunding proposal on an online science platform seeking support for developing low-cost, globally scalable methods to measure marine microplastics. Affordable monitoring tools are critical for expanding understanding of ocean plastic contamination beyond what expensive research vessels can cover.

Experiment is an online platform for funding and sharing scientific discoveries. Push the boundaries of knowledge in biology, chemistry, medicine, physics, computer science, paleontology, economics, engineering, neuroscience, and more.
