Far from urban areas: plastic uptake in fish populations of subtropical headwater streams

Far from urban areas: plastic uptake in fish populations of subtropical headwater streams

Abstract This study investigated the occurrence of plastic particles in the digestive tracts of fish from headwater streams in a human-thinly populated region of the subtropical Sinos River basin in southern Brazil. In total, 258 individuals from 17 species were collected using electric fishing. Thi...
