Ghosts Fishing Nets in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch
Tavish Campbell attaches a GPS tracker onto ghost fishing nets in the GPGP. The buoy will send the position of the nets as they travel around the gyre, increasing our understanding of currents and how trash accumulates in the gyre.
The crew of the Greenpeace ship MY Arctic Sunrise voyage into the Great Pacific Garbage Patch document plastics and other marine debris. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is a soupy mix of plastics and microplastics, now twice the size of Texas, in the middle of the North Pacific Ocean.
