Project description:
Microplastics (> 100 µm - MPs) have been analyzed in several studies while small microplastics (< 100 µm - SMPs), additives, and plasticizers (APs) presence in the seawater of Svalbard has not yet been investigated in detail. Surface and bottom samples will be collected along the Kongsfjorden and near Ossian Sarsfjellet. the project aims to quantify and identify SMPs and APs and investigate the different inputs of surface water, deep-sea currents, glacier and sea ice melting.
