| Abstract： | Microplastics pose a significant environmental threat. In a recent Cell Reports Sustainability article, Xu and Gao introduce a mathematical method to align the abundance of microplastics into the same size range in China's freshwater ecosystems, finding that the abundance of microplastics was previously underestimated. Here, the challenges and opportunities associated with applying this method on a global scale are discussed. |
