From August 1 to 6, Yuxin participated in the comprehensive scientific research cruise Integrated Scientific Investigation of Marine Ecological Environment and Carbon Sink Status in the Greater Bay Area under the Influence of Strong ENSO in 2026, organized by the Southern Marine Laboratory. The cruise successfully collected atmospheric, seawater, and sediment samples, which will provide scientific evidence regarding the source-sink processes, source apportionment, and ecological risks of micro‑ and nanoplastics in the Pearl River Estuary region.
