Tire wear particles are the most dominant source of synthetic polymer-based material in the environment.
“Tire wear particles originate from wear of vehicle tires on pavements and are estimated to be the most dominant source of synthetic polymerbased material in the environment (Baensch-Baltruschat et al., 2020)”

Ingestion of tire wear particles by aquatic species can cause physical effects such as a reduction in food intake due to the volume the particles occupy in the stomach, or toxic chemical effects due to leaching within the digestive tract.
“Ingestion of tire wear particles by aquatic species can cause physical effects such as a reduction in food intake due to the volume that tire wear particles occupy in the stomach or toxic chemical effects due to leaching within the digestive tract (Baensch-Baltruschat et al., 2020).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
