Analysis of the Movement of Microplastics Through Trophic Levels in Freshwater Ecosystems

AGU Fall Meeting 2018 2018
Margie Lodes

Summary

This study investigated the distribution and abundance of microplastics in surface water and sediments of Lake Vrana, Croatia's largest natural lake, finding pervasive contamination throughout the system. Seasonal variation in particle concentrations was linked to tourism intensity and agricultural runoff cycles in the lake catchment.
