The study has already been running for 4 months and 80% of the pellet sampling has been carried out at Playa de La Pineda, Playa dels Prats and Playa Cavalleria.
So far, from the samples taken at La Pineda beach and dels Prats beach in Vila Seca, from February to April, pellets have been found in all samples. This means that there has been a steady arrival of pellets on these beaches since sampling began last January.
As for Cavalleria beach, a very low frequency of pellets arrival has been detected since February, however, since the beginning of April an increase in pellets arrival has been observed on this beach.
