Journal ArticleDOI
Atmospheric transport and deposition of microplastics in a remote mountain catchment
Steve Allen,Deonie Allen,Vernon R. Phoenix,Gaël Le Roux,Pilar Durantez Jimenez,Anaëlle Simonneau,Stéphane Binet,Didier Galop +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the observations of atmospheric microplastic deposition in a remote, pristine mountain catchment (French Pyrenees) and suggest that microplastics can reach and affect remote, sparsely inhabited areas through atmospheric transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Atmospheric Mercury Transfer to Peat Bogs Dominated by Gaseous Elemental Mercury Dry Deposition.
Maxime Enrico,Gaël Le Roux,Nicolas Marusczak,Lars-Eric Heimbürger,Adrien Claustres,Xuewu Fu,Ruoyu Sun,Jeroen E. Sonke +7 more
TL;DR: It is estimated that atmospheric mercury deposition to the peat bog surface is dominated by GEM dry deposition (79%) rather than wet deposition (21%).
Journal ArticleDOI
Latitudinal limits to the predicted increase of the peatland carbon sink with warming

TL;DR: This article examined the global relationship between peatland carbon accumulation rates during the last millennium and planetary-scale climate space and found a positive relationship between carbon accumulation and cumulative photosynthetically active radiation during the growing season for mid-to high-latitude peatlands in both hemispheres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Examination of the ocean as a source for atmospheric microplastics.
Steve Allen,Steve Allen,Deonie Allen,Deonie Allen,Kerry Moss,Gaël Le Roux,Vernon R. Phoenix,Jeroen E. Sonke +7 more
TL;DR: First evidence of MP particles are shown in marine boundary layer air samples on the French Atlantic coast during both onshore and offshore winds, indicating a potential for MPs to be released from the marine environment into the atmosphere by sea-spray giving a globally extrapolated figure of 136000 ton/yr blowing on shore.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development and refinement of proxy-climate indicators from peats
Frank M. Chambers,Robert K. Booth,François De Vleeschouwer,Mariusz Lamentowicz,Gaël Le Roux,Dmitri Mauquoy,Jonathan E. Nichols,Bas van Geel +7 more
TL;DR: Peat, especially from acidic mires (bogs), is a natural archive of past environmental change and has been used as a proxy for past hydrological change as mentioned in this paper.
