A Model of Marine Litter in Sustainable Fisheries
(Corresponding) Nguyen L.
Topic:
Microplastics in the marine environment
This paper studies the dynamics of an economy specialized in fisheries facing a rising marine litter problem. We present a dynamic optimization model to explain the mechanism through which marine litter causes inefficiencies in the fishery sector. We study the dynamic properties of the model when...Read more

Marmara D., Kontomanoli Z., Cevello S., Ragkousis M., Kelaidoni A., (Corresponding) Krasakopoulou E.
Topic:
Marine environment and coastal management
Marine litter have been characterized as one of the main threats for societies, while among them, plastics have been found in various marine ecosystems. A monitoring project on marine litter, based on beach visual-surveys started in 2019, on Paros Island in the Aegean Sea, under the Clean Blue...Read more
Shallow Seafloor Litter: Tracking their Sources and Spatiotemporal Trends in the Presence of Oceanographic Drivers through efficient monitoring
(Corresponding) Fakiris E., Papatheodorou G., Kordella S., Christodoulou D., Galgani F., Geraga M.
Topic:
Marine Litter - Accumulated experience and new perspectives
Seafloor litter is the least exploited component of marine litter. The spatially variable distribution of their densities over time is a cumulative effect of sources’ intensities and natural drivers like wind/wave and current conditions in interaction with seafloor morphology. Making safe...Read more
