Microbial Menaces on Microplastics: A Spatiotemporal Study in the Schuylkill River Watershed

The societal and ecological services of rivers are threatened by numerous contaminants, of which microplastics (MP) are among the most pervasive. However, the ecological risks of MP, especially in urban rivers and downstream […]
