Summary

Researchers at the Leibniz Institute have spent a decade studying how microplastics — plastic particles smaller than 5mm — affect Baltic Sea biology and ecology, expanding their work to cover new microplastic-related environmental topics that may affect aquatic ecosystems humans depend on.

At the Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research, biological and ecological effects of microplastics (plastic particles <5 mm) have been explored by scientists for a decade. Here we add to this research a new microplastic-related topic by exploring their...
