Due to global transport via dust, (1) water, (2) and carbon (3,4) cycles, and like other persistent organic pollutants (POPs), microplastics are ubiquitous across ecosystems. (5,6) Within aquatic ecosystems, POPs (e.g., pesticides) partition based on hydrophobicity, informed by their molecular structure. (7,8) Microplastic particles, however, partition based on physical and chemical properties including surface chemistry, size, density, and shape.
