This project investigates the impact of microplastics on soil ecosystems, focusing on their effects on plant growth, microbial health, and soil properties. It aims to develop standardized methods for detecting microplastics and identify microorganisms that can biodegrade plastics, ultimately enhancing soil health and e…
Plastics are found in nearly every environment and disrupt key ecosystem services.
While the effect of plastic in marine and freshwater ecosystems has been studied extensively, effects of plastic on soil ecosystem functions such as plant growth, microbial biomass and water permeability have been mostly overlooked, particularly for the smallest particles, the microplastics (MPs; ≤ 5 mm).
The lack of appropriate techniques and methodologies for sampling, extraction and detection hamper the researc…
