"KEY RESULTS JPI OCEANS MICROPLASTICS PROJECTS 2016-2019. The first call of the JPI Ocean's joint action 'Ecological aspects of microplastics in the marine environment' resulted in the funding of four microplastics research projects: BASEMAN, EPHEMARE, PLASTOX and WEATHER-MIC.
The projects focused on defining baselines and standards for microplastics analysis, understanding the ecotoxicological effects of microplastics and their associated pollutants, and investigating the weathering of plastics in marine waters. After three years of dedicated microplastics research, the projects have presented their final results."
