Plastic waste may persist on ocean surfaces for generations model shows



London, UK (SPX) Oct 27, 2025
A new study from Queen Mary University of London reveals buoyant plastic debris could remain at ocean surfaces for more than a century. Researchers constructed a model to track how these plastics move from the surface through ocean layers finding that even in a scenario where plastic inputs cease surface fragments continue to degrade and pollute for generations. Published in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A the research is the culmination of a trilogy examining the fate of micropl ... read more
