“…decades, the occurrence of microplastics in the environment has likewise escalated and these new pollutants are now commonly found in rivers (McCormick et al., 2014, Yonkos et al., 2014), lakes (Eriksen et al., 2013, Free et al., 2014), and shorelines (Thompson et al., 2004, Browne et al., 2011).”

“When present, plastic fibers in raw influents are intimately mixed with the mass of cellulosic fibers (Remy et al., 2015) from toilet paper and food solids, and are then removed with the settled flocs.”

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.
