英文摘要As an emerging environmental pollutant, microplastics (MPs) have received widespread attention. Recently, studies examining microplastic pollution in plateau lakes have been increasing, but few have examined the distributions, sources, and fates of MPs in different plateau areas. In this work, the abundances and characteristics of MPs in surface waters and sediments in lakes of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) and Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau (YGP) were systematically investigated. The abundances of MPs in the lakes of the QTP ranges within 0.05-1.8 n/L in surface waters and 10-2643.7 n/kg in sediments. In the lakes of the YGP, the abundances of MPs ranged within 1.3-10.1 n/L in surface waters and 171.7-4260 n/kg in sediments. The dominant shape, color, and size class of MPs were fiber, transparent, and 0-0.5 mm in plateau lakes, respectively. MPs were mainly composed of polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyethylene terephthalate polymers. The different sources of MPs in the QTP and YGP lakes were mainly due to differences in human activities. The primary sources of microplastic pollution in the lakes of the QTP were tourism and atmospheric transport, while sewage discharge, agriculture, and fishing activities were the main sources of MPs in urban lakes of the YGP. Although the level of microplastic pollution in plateau lakes was relatively low, the sources should be identified and monitored so that the effects and extent of microplastic pollution in these fragile environments can be fully understood. This study provides a valuable dataset and theoretical basis for subsequent research on microplastic pollution in plateau lakes.
