This bibliographic review provides an overview of techniques used to detect marine litter
using remote sensing. The review classified studies in terms of platform (satellite, aircrafts …

With the rapid development of urbanization and industrialization, human activities have
caused marine pollution in three ways: land source, air source, and sea source, leading to …

Plastic litter floating in the ocean is a significant problem on a global scale. This study
examines whether Sentinel-2 satellite images can be used to identify plastic litter on the sea …

Natural and oil surface slicks are widespread phenomena at the air-water interface and
represent visible surface films with distinct physicochemical and biological properties …

Visible surface films, termed slicks, can extensively cover freshwater and marine
ecosystems, with coastal regions being particularly susceptible to their presence. The sea …

The sea surface microlayer (SML) is the upper 1 mm of the ocean, where Earth's
biogeochemical processes occur between the ocean and atmosphere. It is …

Plankton and neuston microbes produce organic matter (OM), which accumulates in the sea
surface microlayer (SML). Fluxes of heat and momentum exchange across the sea-air …

Visible surface films, termed slicks, can extensively cover the sea surface, particularly in
coastal regions. The sea-surface microlayer (SML), the upper 1-mm at the air-water interface …

Plastic waste has been rapidly accumulating in the natural environment for decades since
the commercial introduction of plastic in the 1950s as a disposable material. Millions of …

Microalgae blooms are generally associated with bacterial secondary producers. They
produce organic matter (OM), some of which associates with the sea surface microlayer …
