Résumé
Microplastic (MP) pollution is a rising environmental concern. This study investigated MP concentrations in Tokyo Bay using neuston net for surface sampling and deep-sea plankton pump for underwater sampling across six stations at multiple depths. Results revealed substantial variation in MP concentrations. Surface large microplastics (LMP, > 350 μm) ranged from 0.21 × 10
