Microplastics distribution in the Eurasian Arctic is affected by Atlantic waters and Siberian rivers

E. Yakushev, A. Gebruk, et al.

This groundbreaking study examines the distribution of microplastics in the Eurasian Arctic, revealing crucial insights into how Atlantic waters and Siberian rivers contribute to varying microplastic concentrations. Conducted by an expert team of researchers, the findings suggest that these water masses play a vital role in microplastic dispersion, with significant implications for environmental monitoring and water quality assessment.
