Expeditions 2021

The Azores are a remote group of islands in the Atlantic at the very edge of the North Atlantic Gyre.

​

This expedition will be the second of its kind and a follow up expedition to our expedition in 2019, which was the first one ever that has been conducted in the Azores,  allowing us to predict and monitor the amount of microplastics in this remote area.

​

In order to obtain the most accurate picture possible, detailed data on the quantity and composition of the materials found there is needed.
