Dunal plants intercepting macrolitter: implications for beach clean-ups
Coastal vegetation intercepts macroplastics and, consequently, it may represent a reservoir
of anthropogenic litter and organic wrack. We aimed at investigating (i) the abundance …

[HTML][HTML] Comparison of concentration, shape, and polymer composition between microplastics and mesoplastics in Japanese river waters
While plastics are classified by size as microplastics (< 5 mm), mesoplastics (5–25 mm), and
macroplastics (> 25 mm), research in rivers has centered on microplastics, followed by …
