Transport and Behavior of Microplastics Emissions From Urban Sources in the Baltic Sea

Transport and Behavior of Microplastics Emissions From Urban Sources in the Baltic Sea

Urban sources, wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), untreated wastewater (not connected to WWTPs), and especially combined sewer overflow systems (CSS) including stormwater are major pathways for microplastics in the aquatic environment.
