Impact and Fate of Microplastics in the Riverine Ecosystem
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed the fate, transport, and ecological impacts of microplastics in riverine ecosystems, finding that rivers serve as major conduits for microplastic transfer from terrestrial sources to oceans and that riverine biota face significant exposure-related health risks.
Microplastic Pollution in Indian Aquatic Ecosystems: Insights and Implications
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers documented widespread microplastic contamination across Indian lakes, rivers, and coastal waters — including in remote high-altitude regions like Ladakh — showing that no aquatic ecosystem in the country is untouched, with direct implications for the hundreds of millions of people who depend on these water sources.
Microplastics pollution in the rivers, its source, and impact on aquatic life: a review
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed global evidence of microplastic contamination in rivers and lakes, finding that plastic particles serve as carriers for toxic chemicals, harm aquatic life through ingestion and entanglement, and enter human food and water supplies, while also exploring plant-based plastic alternatives that could reduce future pollution.
Potential Impact of Heavy Metals and Microplastics in River Ecosystem on Aquatic Organisms and Human Health, and Sustainable Mitigation Approaches
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers review the combined contamination of rivers by heavy metals and microplastics, documenting how both pollutants bioaccumulate through aquatic food webs causing oxidative stress, genetic damage, and reproductive disruption in freshwater species, with rising urbanization and industrialization amplifying ecological risks and human health exposure through trophic pathways.
Microplastics in Freshwater Riverine Systems: Brief Profile, Trophic-Level Transfer and Probable Remediation
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers reviewed microplastic contamination in freshwater river systems, documenting how plastics enter via industrial and domestic discharge, transfer up the food chain through trophic levels, and outlined potential biological and physical remediation strategies for river environments.
