Trees take up water and nutrients through their roots; but also nanoplastics! We investigated if water use strategies can play a role, and how anthropogenic pollution can place more stress on physiology. Read more in our recently published manuscript here: pubs.rsc.org/en/content/arti…

For her PhD research, Nelle Meyers (#VLIZ, @ILVOvlaanderen, @GhEnToxLab) developed a new semi-automatic method for the detection and identification of marine microplastics - combining fluorescent Nile Red staining with machine-learning. The method proved reliable for most polymer types, also weathered plastic particles down to a size of 4µm. Congrats Nelle with the brilliant work! More on vliz.be/en/news/new-cost-and…
