Forest Soils Trap Microplastics from the Air
Microplastics — tiny fragments of plastic less than a millimeter across — are now firmly embedded in one of the least disturbed ecosystems in Europe: forests. A new study by researchers at the Technical University of Darmstadt finds that forest soils in central Germany are accumulating significant amounts of these particles, largely through the simple … Continue reading Forest Soils Trap Microplastics from the Air
