Contents

Recent studies have highlighted the importance of the atmosphere in the long-range transport of microplastic fibres. However, their dry deposition in the atmosphere is not fully understood, with the common spherical-shape assumption leading to significant uncertainties in predicting their travel distance and atmospheric residence time. Shapes of mi...
