Microplastic research is a rapidly develo** field, with urgent needs for high throughput
and automated analysis techniques. We conducted a review covering image analysis from …

Approximately 80% of marine plastic waste originates from land-based sources and enters
oceans through rivers. Hence, to create effective regulations, it is crucial to thoroughly …

The ubiquitous pollution of the environment with microplastics, a diverse suite of
contaminants, is of growing concern for science and currently receives considerable public …

Plastic pollution is a global problem that poses a threat to coastal and marine ecosystems
and human livelihoods and requires effective solutions adaptable to local conditions. In …

Microplastics (MPs) are an emerging environmental problem due to their all-around
existence and extraordinary stability. A significant number of studies are found in recent …

To date, the largest Russian rivers discharging to the Arctic Ocean remain a “blank spot” on
the world map of data on the distribution of microplastics in freshwater systems. This study …

In coastal waters, higher concentrations of microplastics (MPs) are generally related to
densely populated and industrialized areas, but intense upwelling and offshore transport in …

Microplastics are emerging micropollutants in water threatening aquatic and land
organisms. The microplastic–water system is complicated due to the multiple constituents in …

Abstract The East Pacific (EP) region, especially the central and southern EP, has been fairly
less studied than other world's regions with respect to marine litter pollution. This …

Possible access routes of macro and mesoplastics, acting as the main sources of pollution in
the coastal ecosystem, are examined as a case study on four beaches along the Istanbul …
