Happy Oceans Day!

We celebrate the #oceansday sharing with you a small preview of the work we have been doing in collaboration with the Farfalle Project, on board the Marhaba Catamaran,along the coast of Santiago del Teide and Guía de Isora, in Tenerife.

The scientific method is a characteristic feature of science. What is more, it is the strategy of scientific research. And here we are! Testing methods at the same time as sailing!

What differences do we find between the most common methods of sampling #microplastics on the surface of seawater? Is there variation in the composition of the particles found in each sample? How is the distribution in terms of the size and morphology of the particles? What if we focus on their color? We will soon show in more detail the work we continue to do as a team.
