A new study from Dal researchers including @Dal_ESnENVS master's student Anna Ryan and Dr. Tony Walker (@tonyrwalker1) found that Hurricane Larry transported microplastics from the ocean to inland areas. 🌀 cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scot…
Researchers used Hurricane Larry to prove ocean microplastics can be swept inland as air pollution...

Researchers used Hurricane Larry to prove ocean microplastics can be swept inland as air pollution...

As Hurricane Larry lashed Newfoundland in 2021, university students from Halifax headed to a rural area in its track to find out whether the ocean might whip microplastics up into the atmosphere then...

On Dec. 6, 1989, 14 women—most of them engineering students—were killed in an anti-feminist shooting at Montreal’s École Polytechnique. Today, we honour the victims and continue to be mindful of all the women who have been affected by gender-based violence.
