The Great Pacific Garbage Patch is showing an unusual color change
Researchers at the University of Bergen analyzed three satellite ocean‑color records and found that waters near the Great Pacific Garbage Patch between Hawaii and California became brighter in blue and green light from 2002 to 2022, shifting toward cyan. The change may be linked to rising microplastic concentrations, though direct water measurements are still needed.
