A rapid method for assessing the accumulation of microplastics in the sea surface microlayer (SML) of estuarine systems
Microplastics are an increasingly important contaminant in the marine environment. Depending on their composition and degree of biofouling, many common microplastics are less dense than seawater and so tend to float at or near the ocean surface. As such, they may exhibit high concentrations in the s...
