Lagrangian transport of marIne litter and microplastics in coastal waters: structures of transport and connectivity patterns

P.I.: Emilio Hernández-García, Cristóbal López

The aim of this project is to further understand the role of oceanic transport in marine litter (microplastics and meso/macrolitter) dispersion and accumulation areas in the sea surface, along the water column …
