| 英文摘要 | Microplastics are one of the most valuable indicators reflecting the effects of human activities on natural environment. This study was conducted in a representative remote region of Tibetan Plateau in China, simultaneously analyzing the abundance, compositions and fate of MPs both in water and soil media. MPs were detected in surface water, sediment and soil with abundances ranging from 66.6 to 7333 number/m(3), 20 to 160 items/kg, and 20 to 110 items/kg, respectively. Fibers were the most frequently observed shape in the surface water and sediment, while the dominant shape in the soil was film. The major polymers of MPs in water and soil samples were polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PE). Small MPs were the main components with the <500 mu m fraction accounting for 94.74%, 88.37% and 88.34% of total MP particles in surface water, sediment and soil, respectively. Correlation analysis was further conducted to identify the sources of MPs from different human activities. The night light index was innovatively used to represent population rather than local residents, considering the large number of tourists in this region. It was found that tourism was the main source of MPs in water bodies, while facility agriculture and previous secondary industry are major contributors to soil MPs. A simplified equation set for MP abundance prediction was also formulated related to different industrial features. This study provides an evidence of noticeable MPs associated with human activities even at remote regions, and advances a feasible tool for MPs prediction according to local economic development. Capsule: The effect of human activities on natural environment in a remote region was illustrated by evaluating the abundance, compositions and fate of MPs across freshwater and terrestrial environment.
