Lichen Biomonitoring of Airborne Microplastics in Milan (N Italy)
SIMPLE SUMMARY: The atmospheric deposition of microplastics (MPs) is a growing concern for human health. In this research, we studied the deposition of airborne MPs in urban areas of Milan and a remote area in North Italy using lichen transplants. The results demonstrate that lichens are suitable bi...
