Assessment of Prevalence and Heterogeneity of Meso- and Microplastic Pollution in Icelandic Waters

Assessment of Prevalence and Heterogeneity of Meso- and Microplastic Pollution in Icelandic Waters

Surface water samples were collected using a low-tech aquatic debris instrument (LADI) at six nearshore locations on the north and northwestern coasts of Iceland to investigate the prevalence of mesoplastic (5–10 mm) and microplastic (0.3–5 mm) in the region. This sampling strategy involved sampling...
