Summary

This review covers microplastic accumulation patterns across environmental compartments, ecological and human health impacts, and monitoring approaches used globally. It identifies critical knowledge gaps in understanding long-term accumulation dynamics and highlights the need for standardized monitoring frameworks.

Environmental pollution caused by microplastics (MPs) has evolved into a global concern; however, the knowledge about MP accumulation in the environment, potential impacts, and monitoring approaches is limited [...].
