Overview
PhD Project title:
Abundance and source identification of microplastics in Chinese farmland soils
Supervisors:
Prof. Dave Chadwick & Prof. Davey Jones.
I am a PhD student that currently working in the project called "Do agricultural microplastics undermine food security and sustainable development in less economically developed countries?” (GCRF, Project NE/V005871/1). This project is supported by the UKRI Global Challenges Research Fund and the Natural Environment Research Council project, and the High-level Team Project of China Agricultural University. This project is led by Prof. Davey Jones at Bangor University.
