Topic: 
Microplastics in the marine environment
Plastic pollution is an acknowledged global problem. As estimated, about 82% of marine litter is plastics, while about 94% of marine plastics are defined as microplastics (MPs), which is less than 5mm in size. MPs have been regarded as widespread emerging pollutants. Different from the commonly...Read more
