Rivers act as conduits of both anthropogenic and organic litter that eventually reach oceans. Few studies have investigated how anthropogenic litter and organic litter vary along gradients from the river’s edge into riparian ecosystems, if anthropogenic and organic litter are spatially coupled with one another, and how anthropogenic litter composition varies across riparian areas. The ecosystem ecology lab (BIO 459L) has been studying riparian litter for the last couple of years along the Great Miami River. We set up transects to look at anthropogenic and organic litter from the river’s edge, and every two meters inland up to 10m. We found evidence that anthropogenic litter and organic litter are spatially coupled, and that the composition ...
