Summary
This field report describes microplastic sample collection from peat bogs on Réunion Island as part of a project using peat archives to reconstruct the history of atmospheric plastic deposition. Peat bogs can preserve a chronological record of airborne pollutants including microplastics, offering a way to track how atmospheric plastic contamination has changed over time.
Study Type
Environmental
This report presents all the samples collected within the framework of the ANR Atmo-Plastic and TJF Carbon Islands projects on the territory of Reunion Island. The objective of these projects is to use the peat bogs of Reunion Island as microplastic traps and thus reveal the history of atmospheric contamination by microplastics in the Indian Ocean over the last fifty years. The surveys will also provide a better understanding of the potential of Reunion's peat bogs as environmental archives and carbon stocks thanks to ongoing carbon-14 dating. The additional samples obtained (water, mosses, lichens) will provide a better understanding of atmospheric contamination on the island.
