Meta-analysis of Error Sources in the Determination of Micro- and Nanoplastics

2018
Cayla R Cook

Summary

Researchers analyzed microplastics in North Sea surface waters and seabed sediments, characterizing polymer types, shapes, and size distributions at stations across the southern and central North Sea. Fibers dominated in surface samples while fragments were more prevalent in sediments, suggesting differential transport and settling dynamics.
