[Characteristics of Microplastic Present in Urban Road Dust].

Microplastics (MPs), as an emerging contaminant, have attracted wide attention due to their potentially negative impact on the ecosystem. However, information on microplastic pollution in terrestrial environments, especially road dust, is still rare. In this study, the microplastic pollution in road dust from the Yushan District of Ma'anshan City was characterized.

[Characterization of Microplastic Pollution of Sediments from Urban Lakes].

In recent years, microplastics (MPs) in the environment has become a topic of increasing concern. In this study, typical urban lakes, such as Yushan Lake and Nanhu Lake in Maanshan City, were selected to study the physical morphology and spatial distribution characteristics of MPs in sediments in spring and summer and to explore the sources of MPs in the lakes. On average, MPs in sediments occurred with a content of (0.
