[O11-P115] Catch the Microplastics Suspended in the Air!

*Karin Goto1 (1.Tokyo Metropolitan High School of Science and Technology)

Keywords:Air, MPs

Currently, marine pollution caused by microplastics (MPs) is attracting worldwide attention. However, it has been reported that MPs are floating in the air due to UV rays, wave splash, typhoons, and other meteorological phenomena, raising concerns about their impact on the environment and living organisms. Therefore, we conducted a survey and research to determine if MPs are also affecting the air around our school.
