Natalie WeldenDr Natalie Welden (University of Glasgow) is a marine biologist and ecotoxicologist with over a decade's research experience in the field of microplastic pollution. Her previous publications have explored the chemical and mechanical breakdown of larg plastic debris, the transport and deposition of microplastics, and their uptake and impacts in aquatic species. In her work, there has been a key focus on the effects of microplastic fibers on nutritional state and survivorship in commercially important species, as well as on potential solutions to the issue of plastic pollution. Most recently, Natalie has been working on the movement of plastics in agricultural settings, examining their sources, migration, and fate in a farm setting. Read More Read Less
