Peer review history: A review of the environments, biota, and methods used in microplastics research in South Africa

2024

Summary

This peer review commentary evaluates a paper reviewing the environments, biota, and methods used in microplastics research, critiquing the manuscript structure and suggesting improvements to the title and conceptual framing. The review highlights areas where the paper could more concisely distinguish between documenting the state of the field and conducting a literature synthesis.

In my opinion, the two halves of the title (the state of research and a review of current research) are a repeat or very similar to one another, I suggest changing the title into something that is more concise.
