英文摘要	Microplastics are a major environmental issue of concern. Since 2016, Hudson River Park has collaborated with Brooklyn College to survey microplastics within Park waters between Chambers and 59th Streets in Manhattan. It was hypothesized that microplastic concentration is influenced by proximity to combined sewer overflow (CSO) points, precipitation, and tides. Samples were collected at channel and near-shore locations at downtown and midtown sites. Microplastics were analyzed following NOAA methods via stereo microscope. Concentrations in 2018 were higher than in 2016, 2017 and 2019 ((ANOVA F (1,70) = 5.2, p < 0.03; post hoc Tukey test p < 0.009)), and near-shore sites tended to exhibit higher concentrations than channel sites (ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey: p < 0.03*). Microfibers were not fully accounted for and fragments were highly prevalent in all samples (~70%). Additional data will improve the understanding of the presence of microplastics in the Lower Hudson and elucidate the effects of wet weather on plastic concentrations. © 2020
