Yesterday we saw it on the echolot and we know for sure that it is really there. We immediately use the method discovered yesterday, but here the water depth is greater and catching the device takes more time &#8211; casting circles around it takes almost <strong>four hours<\/strong>. But what a joy when it works! With puffed cheeks and gritted teeth, Marta and Barbara take out the sediment trap, and everyone&#8217;s eyes widen in surprise when they see how much sediments have accumulated over the year &#8211; more than <strong>300 ml<\/strong> &#8211; in comparison, other traps had accumulated less than 100 ml of sediments.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When glacier melts, meltwater transports everything in its path &#8211; both what has accumulated in the glaciers <strong>for millennia<\/strong> and the soil through which it flows. Given the age (or rather, newness) of the Eidembukta lagoon and its isolation, it should be free from <strong>plastic pollution<\/strong>. However, despite our hopes, the consequences of human insatiability are visible here too. Microplastics are transported to the polar regions with air masses and ocean currents &#8211; the <strong>beach<\/strong> is covered with plastic litter, from large <strong>buoys<\/strong> and <strong>shampoo bottles<\/strong> to barely noticeable bits of <strong>microplastics<\/strong>. It is painful to realize that we are polluting not only the environment in our vicinity, but also ecosystems younger than some people and which we ourselves have never visited and most likely will never visit.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-smiltis-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-smiltis-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15612\" style=\"width:603px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-smiltis-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-smiltis-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-smiltis-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-smiltis-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-smiltis-2048x1536.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-rokas-edited.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1152\" height=\"1536\" src=\"https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-rokas-edited.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15615\" style=\"width:501px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-rokas-edited.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-rokas-edited-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/lhei.lv\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/5.-plastmasa-rokas-edited-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1152px) 100vw, 1152px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the plastic particles found on the beach &#8211; in a place untouched by humans, yet polluted with plastic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>&#8220;MP-ARCTIC&#8221;<\/strong> project provides a unique insight into the <strong>interaction<\/strong> between nature and people.

This was the second and last expedition to <strong>Eidembukta lagoon<\/strong> within the framework of the project, however, there are now more questions than at the project launch, and the answers can only be found through continuation of research.
