Nanoplastics entered the Atlantic via rivers, sunlight-driven plastic breakdown, and even through the air with rain or dust.

Scientists found invisible plastic pollution across the North Atlantic Ocean. These particles harm both wildlife and humans.

A new study estimates that the North Atlantic Ocean alone has a staggering 27 million metric tons of nanoplastics.

Tiny plastic particles fill the Atlantic in staggering amounts. Their effects are only beginning to be understood. A major ...

Motes of plastic less than a micrometer across could outnumber larger fragments and particles floating through the oceans to a shocking extent, a new study has discovered. Led by a team from Utrecht ...

A new study analyzed nearly four decades of deep ocean observations to reveal significant cooling and freshening of deep water in the Subtropical North Atlantic. The results suggest that warmer ...
