This study by Kovochich et al., extends recently developed single particle analysis methods to various urban river samples which belong to more complex media types.
The study presents one of the first published particle size distributions of TRWP including single particle elemental chemical mapping of river sediment.
These data may help increase specificity of TRWP identification and provide information on TRWP size distribution for fate and transport models. The results help advance the methods for TRWP identification and characterization of TRWP in various environmental matrices.
