What is Microplastics and PAHs in Xiamen Coastal Areas about?

This document analyzes microplastics and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in coastal areas around Xiamen, China. The study found 103-2017 microplastic particles/m3 in surface seawater and 76-333 particles/kg in sediments. Dissolved PAH concentrations in seawater were 18.1-248 ng/L. Microplastic abundance was highest in the Western Harbor area. Foams dominated in seawater, but no foams were found in sediments. Polyethylene and polypropylene were dominant plastic types. Cluster analysis showed fibers a
