Mid-Level Riverine Outflow Matters: A Case of Microplastic Transport in the Jiulong River, China

Riverine outflow is one of the major pathways for microplastic transportation to coastal environments. Research on the output of microplastics in small- or medium-sized rivers will help accurately understand the status of their marine loads. In this study, we used both trawling and pumping methods t...
