Résumé
Understanding the spatial distribution and characteristics of microplastics (MPs) in lake waters is essential to assessing and addressing lacustrine MP pollution. This study investigated how lake ice affects the abundance, spatial distribution, and characteristics (size, shape) of MPs in Lake Ulansuhai by analyzing samples collected at ten sites uniformly distributed throughout the lake during ice-free and ice-covered periods. The abundance of MPs ranged between 204 ± 28 and 1224 ± 185 n·L
