So happy to be included in this paper with Erina and @MicroPlastic101 . Her work highlights recycling centres as a source of microplastic pollution.

Confession: I am the unnamed "Scottish academic" in this @ftweekend article. The (world's most northerly) pub is where all the best arctic research gets done. #svalbard

Over half-way through a sampling campaign at Ny-Alesund, Svalbard. Catching all the plastics in a very ideallic setting. Just need to see a polar bear now.

Thanks to @MicroPlastic101 @NorskPolar @Dr_Chris_White @INTERACT66

Privileged to have visited the Zeppelin Observatory at Ny-Alesund #Svalbard with @NorskPolar, one of the @WMO's Global Atmosphere Watch facilities. Sad to not be at #EGU22 @EuroGeosciences in person this week, but this makes up for it! https://t.co/nqFXTni9S8 @anna_research

@anna_research sampling airborne #microplastic at Ny-Alesund Research Station (79º North) in #Svalbard. Seeking evidence that the atmosphere transports small particles to the most remote parts of the world. Supported by @INTERACT66 & @NorskPolar.

My first ever paper with Deonie Allen was published on Hogmanay - great way to bring in 2022 🎉

@nakyanzi94 @MicroPlastic101 Thanks Bridget ☺️

[Anna MacDonald - Research Student (She/Her) @anna_research]

Started my first ever sampling campaign today after months of planning with @MicroPlastic101 . Does this mean I’m officially a PhD student now? 🎉 Can’t wait to see the results #microplastics #phdlife

[Anna MacDonald - Research Student (She/Her) @anna_research]

First ever field experiment and the local wildlife think it’s a tasty snack??? Never thought I’d be writing anti-squirrel protocols into my methods. Thanks @MicroPlastic101 for saving the day ❤️ #fail #phdlife #microplastic

Phew, our precious #SeaIce samples from this summer’s campaign to #HAUSGARTEN observatory made it safely to #Glasgow only a week ago 🥲 and are already being processed by DocDee and @anna_research for #microplastic analyses! Can’t wait for the results! 🤗

Just installed: this year’s #StrathImages exhibition, looking resplendent in the sunshine. If you’re in the Glasgow area, why not take a stroll along the Clyde in the lovely weather and find out about some of our exciting research?

Strathclyde research is investigating the prevalence of tiny plastic particles in the air and their effects on our lungs, aiming to inform policy to prevent future contamination: https://t.co/KKNA6mBjzJ #StrathImages @anna_research @StrathCivEng #PlasticFreeJuly
