The microplastics can be any type of particle in this context 😁😁

The multiple aggregations with marine snow (the high speed train to microplastics) is the key. One-off process is not enough to take microplastics to deep ocean.

One key information is that only small microplastics can be taken to the deep ocean. Our paper @naturewaterjnl.bsky.social can give you more information www.nature.com/articles/s44...
Flocs as vectors for microplastics in the aquatic environment - Nature Water
Microplastics dispersed in the environment can be transported as single entities or in flocs. Analysis of existing and new data shows that microplastic transport can be modelled in a way that is consi...
