2.1 CRC 1357 Microplastics
2.1.1 Vertical distribution of microplastic particles in alluvial soils
Description: You will determine the amount of microplastic particles on soil samples taken in different depths in s profile in Merkenich-Langel (Cologne).
Goal: Visualize the vertical distribution of MPs and correlate them to soil properties to understand possible vertical migration of particles.
Methods: \(\mu\)-FTIR spectroscopy
Contact: Hannes Laermanns, Markus Rolf
Particularities: Lab work partially to be done at the University of Bayreuth (Dr. M. Löder)
