Last Thursday we launched our plastic limnocorral experiment at Tait Preserve! We have been working on this for a year now so we're very excited to start getting results! Stay tuned to hear more about this experiment and what we find. #PlasticPollution #Microplastics @ritscience.bsky.social

More #IAGLR25: Congrats to our @jaykucharek.bsky.social, who won Best Presenter in his session. Jay discussed installing 50 new LittaTraps in #Rochester to capture #plasticpolltion in storm drains to keep it out of the #greatlakes @rittigers.bsky.social @ritscience.bsky.social @iaglr.bsky.social

I had a great time at #iaglr25 and enjoyed our panel discussion.
Then Christy Tyler and @matthewhoffman.bsky.social talked about modeling plastic moving through and accumulating in the Monroe County watershed and the #greatlakes. They also participated in a panel discussion on #microplastic research and policy. @ritscience.bsky.social @rittigers.bsky.social
