Investigating the Sources, Abundance and Types of Microplastics in the Arctic, 2018
Amundsen ScienceMicroplastics pollution has been found across the globe, but with limited information from the polar regions. Although there is evidence of microplastics in the Arctic and Antarctic, little is understood about the sources, fate and extent of contamination. We…
