The effects of large roughness elements on the in-stream transport and retention of polystyrene microplastics

The mechanisms controlling transport and retention of microplastics (MPs) in riverine systems are not understood well. We investigated the impact of large roughness elements (LREs) on in-stream transport and retention of the ubiquitous polystyrene-microplastics (PS-MPs). Scaled experiments were cond...
