Assessing the external atmospheric input of microplastics: Two strategies based on polymer composition and aging characteristics

Microplastics (MPs) can be transported over long distances in the environment, hence, distinguishing between MPs generated locally and those introduced from external sources is necessary for regional MP pollution management. In this study, MPs pollution in the dust of Siziwang banner (Sizi), a spars...

In this study, MPs pollution in the dust of Siziwang banner (Sizi), a sparsely populated area on the Mongolian Plateau, and Hohhot, a city with large populations, was observed.
