Microplastic Contamination of Baffin Bay Sediments

Recent research has indicated microplastic contamination is ubiquitous throughout the globe. Ongoing research now aims to identify sources and sinks of microplastics to begin mitigation and reclamation of this biologically deleterious pollution. This research project allows insight into microplastic...
