Summary
This conference paper investigates how microplastic distribution changes along salinity gradients and tidal cycles in the Seine estuary, a well-mixed tidal system. Researchers found that estuarine hydrodynamics play a major role in determining where microplastics accumulate or are exported to the sea. The paper was presented at MICRO 2020.
