Titel
Auswirkungen von Sickerwasser aus Kunststoff auf 脰kosystemfunktionen und die menschliche Gesundheit
Kurzbeschreibung
P-LEACH assesses the impact of chemicals from globally increasing environmental plastic pollution on ecosystem functions and human health. Plastics impact ecosystems as a new habitat for colonization (鈥減lastisphere鈥�), and weathering leads to fragmentation and leaching of chemicals, including harmful additives (e.g., plasticizers, bisphenols, metals). Our multidisciplinary consortium jointly characterizes these pollutants and their synergistic impacts on ecosystem functions with a strong focus on microbial geochemical cycles in realistic aquatic settings along the land-coast-ocean continuum and at hot spots (German Bight, North Atlantic and Pacific Gyres). P-LEACH also addresses human health effects using human cell lines and human tissues.
