Past Projects

Microplastics in the Aquatic Environment

How many microplastics are in Cayuga Lake and in surrounding tributaries? Where are they coming from?

Plastic Particle Verification

One upcoming problem in microplastics research is making sure what we are seeing is acualty plastic and not organic material. So, how do we know what we are seeing is plastic and not something else?

Microplastics & Fish Behavior

We know that microplastics are found in waterways, but how do plastics affect aquatic life?

Plastic Waste Reduction Advocacy

We are obsessed with plastics. Plastic bags, straws, cups, and more. How do we stop/curb our obsession?
