This project investigates the interactions between plastics and metals in various environments, focusing on how plastic degradation affects nutrient and toxic metal cycling. It aims to understand the ecological implications of these interactions through experimental and mathematical modeling approaches.
Plastic and microplastic pollution is a global environmental and societal concern.
While focus has been placed on assessing the direct impacts on biota, indirect ecological effects are unexplored.
Following very recent (and unexpected) laboratory evidences of a considerable binding between metals and altered plastics, I hypothesize that such an interaction can be amplified in environmental conditions due to mechanical, UV and biological degradations during plastic ageing.
Plastic can change the…
