Crowd-Based Observations of Riverine Macroplastic Pollution

Crowd-Based Observations of Riverine Macroplastic Pollution

Macroplastic pollution (> 0.5 cm) negatively impacts aquatic life and threatens human livelihood on land, in oceans and river systems. Reliable information on the origin, fate and pathways of plastic in river systems is required to optimize prevention, mitigation and reduction strategies. Yet...
