Occurrence Characteristics and Ecological Risk Assessment of Microplastics in the Water Body of Lake Gahai, Tibetan Plateau of China
Summary
Researchers characterized microplastic pollution in Lake Gahai on the Tibetan Plateau — a remote, high-altitude freshwater system — documenting the occurrence, distribution, and ecological risk of particles in an understudied region where sources and transport pathways remain poorly constrained.
Microplastics (MPs) pollution has emerged as a significant global concern. Research on the sources, distribution, and ecological risks of MPs in the lakes of the Tibetan Plateau remains relatively scarce, thereby hindering efforts to clarify the current status and transport patterns of MPs in ...
