The microplastic pollution and related ecological impacts in the aquatic environment have
attracted global attention over the past decade. Microplastics can be ingested by aquatic …

Tire microplastics (TMPs) are identified as one of the most abundant types of microplastics,
which originate from rubber with intended or unintended release. While increasing …

Tire wear particles (TWP), generated from tire material during use on roads have gained
increasing attention as part of organic particulate contaminants, such as microplastic, in …

Micronized tire rubber has recently come into focus as black particles that are found in
microplastic (MP) samples worldwide. These particles have been found in all environmental …

Tire wear particles (TWP) have been identified as one of the major sources of microplastics
(MPs), and few studies have focused on their environmental behaviors and impacts …

In recent years, the focus of microplastic research has begun to observe a shift from the
marine towards terrestrial and freshwater environments. This is in response to a greater …

Tire emissions have emerged as an environmental contaminant of concern. To fully
understand their effects to biota, research is needed from different stages of a tire's lifecycle …

ranges.•Understanding human-mediated dispersal is crucial for predicting future …

Tread particles (TPs) from vehicle tires are widely distributed in soil ecosystems; therefore,
there is an urgent need to evaluate their effects on soil biota. In the present study, the soil …

Micronized particles released from car tires have been found to contribute substantially to
microplastic pollution, triggering the need to evaluate their effects on biota. In the present …
