Field assessment of engineered bioretention as microplastics sink through site characterization and hydrologic modeling.

open access: yesJournal of Hazardous Materials
Green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) practices like bioretention are considered a sink for microplastics washed in from urbanized land uses-land covers, and thereby regulating the environmental dispersion of microplastics.
