The Erasmus Maris is supported through a collaboration agreement with the
European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC). One of the objectives is to implement quality control procedures to ensure valid and useful outcomes for the scientific community when monitoring microplastics pollution in aquatic environments. |
