The effect of urban point source contamination on microplastic levels in water and organisms in a cold‐water stream
Abstract We examined the influence of point and nonpoint source contamination on microplastic (MP) levels in water, macroinvertebrates, and trout in a small, cold‐water stream in western Wisconsin, U.S.A. We collected samples along an urbanization gradient centered around a 6‐mile corridor that rece...
