Ups and Downs in the Ocean: Effects of Biofouling on Vertical Transport of Microplastics
[Image: see text] Recent studies suggest size-selective removal of small plastic particles from the ocean surface, an observation that remains unexplained. We studied one of the hypotheses regarding this size-selective removal: the formation of a biofilm on the microplastics (biofouling). We develop...
