This is HUGE!!!🤯
Today the @CaWaterBoards posted a report detailing the world's FIRST regulatory evaluation of a waterbody (San Francisco Bay) being potentially impaired due to #microplastics.
The Board will hold a hearing on the matter on March 21st.

Interested in microplastics and tire particles? Here’s a research highlight on work The Gray Lab is conducting at @virginia_tech on tire particles entering Duck Pond from car traffic nearby. #microplastics #tireparticles #emergingcontaminants #BlackinSTEM https://t.co/SWlUnepKkF

Thanks to @ChangHeejun and #EliseGranek with @ACE_Lab_PSU for the talk on MP perceptions and sampling moss to estimate atmospheric deposition of MPs #PNWCPConference2022 #microplastics #everylittlebit

[Dr. Susanne Brander 🐟 🌊 @smbrander]

Fun presenting on a #microplastics panel at the Business and the Environment meeting in PDX today!

#microplastics folks working with fibers, how do you quantify fibers from degrading facemask like this 👇🏿in the environment?

[ACE Lab @ACE_Lab_PSU]

Elise will be speaking in December! Free for students and postdocs!

[pnwmicroplastics @pnwmicroplastic]

Two weeks left to register for the December Conference (12/12 & 12/13). Here are some of our wonderful speakers you will see in 3 ½ weeks! 🧵

Allie represented our lab this weekend at #WSN2022!

[Oregon Sea Grant @OregonSeaGrant]

Oregon Sea Grant's Amy Ehrhart has created an online guide to aquaculture in Oregon. You'll find a map of aquaculture operations in the state along with information about oysters, dulse seaweed, tilapia, white sturgeon, salmonids & warm-water fish. https://t.co/8wSwiouIYh

A true queen @DraPanchote out here representing unapologetically as always. We stan. #RepresentationMatters #glucosemonitor #isthatacrabonyourarm #crabsoncrabs

[Dr. Susanne Brander 🐟 🌊 @smbrander]

Excited to be presenting at the Columbia River Basin #Microplastic workshop today and that Oregon is starting to pay more attention to MPs in freshwater. @pnwmicroplastic @ACE_Lab_PSU

[IUCN Plastics @IUCN_Plastics]

Attention textile scientists and others working toward solutions on the plastic pollution problems related to microfibers, this book may be of interest:
