Lots of good discussion on coastal pollutants at our ‘Turf to Surf’ session at State of the Coast today 🌊 @OregonSeaGrant #microplastics #pfas #pesticides @HatfieldMSC @ACE_Lab_PSU @laurenkashi @pnwmicroplastic – at Newport, OR

Had fun looking at tiny larval pycnopodia today, they are so squishy 🌟 @DraPanchote @laurenkashi @pnwmicroplastic – at Corvallis, OR

This is HUGE!!!🤯
Today the @CaWaterBoards posted a report detailing the world's FIRST regulatory evaluation of a waterbody (San Francisco Bay) being potentially impaired due to #microplastics.
The Board will hold a hearing on the matter on March 21st.

Interested in microplastics and tire particles? Here’s a research highlight on work The Gray Lab is conducting at @virginia_tech on tire particles entering Duck Pond from car traffic nearby. #microplastics #tireparticles #emergingcontaminants #BlackinSTEM vtx.vt.edu/videos/k/2023/02/…

#microplastics folks working with fibers, how do you quantify fibers from degrading facemask like this 👇🏿in the environment?

Excited to be presenting at the Columbia River Basin #Microplastic workshop today and that Oregon is starting to pay more attention to MPs in freshwater. @pnwmicroplastic @ACE_Lab_PSU – at Oregon, USA

Just discovered that Twitter is a thing in Academia… 1 day after reviving my account, I’ve learned about relevant grant opportunities and identified a journal to submit to. Now I’m wondering why setting up an account isn’t part of grad school orientation?!

Not gonna lie, I was pretty starstruck seeing @Leahtommi talk last week. Her positivity is inspiring and her book gives tools to tackle oppression and environmental problems at once 💫 highly recommend giving it a read! And support a local bookstore like @thirdeyebag!

Was great to get to work with the awesome @ACE_Lab_PSU on a chapter in this upcoming book on #textilepollution #microfibers
@pnwmicroplastic @DraPanchote @plasticslayer @EcologyImp
Coming May 19th this new book explores the issue of environmental pollutants produced by the textiles industry. @lisaerdle @ChelseaRochman @smbrander @kennedybucci1 @bm_hamilton @UofTTrashTeam routledge.com/Polluting-Text…
