  • 摘要:The occurrence of microplastics in marine habitats is well documented and of growing concern The presence of these small (<5 mm) pieces of plastic is less well recorded in inland water systems In this paper, we determine a costefficient and straightforward method for the collection and identification of microplastics in UK inland waters We found pieces of microplastic from all sample sites ranging from over 1000 L1 in the River Tame, to 24 L1 in Loch Lomond The presence of microplastics in all waters tested suggest it should now be classed as an emergent contaminant, with routine monitoring required.
