Researchers conducted a headwaters-to-estuary survey of microplastics in Puget Sound river systems, quantifying particle abundances across the full fluvial continuum. Concentrations increased with downstream distance and urbanization, with estuarine receiving waters accumulating plastics transported by multiple tributary rivers.
