Impact of Microplastics on the Physiology of Benthos
2024
Mubashar Hussain,
Dominique Blache,
Shane K. Maloney
Summary
Researchers reviewed how microplastic pollution harms bottom-dwelling aquatic organisms, summarizing evidence that benthic species face widespread physiological disruption from microplastic ingestion and accumulation, with broader implications for aquatic biodiversity.
Microplastic pollution presents a great menace to the biodiversity occupying aquatic ecosystems by accumulating in benthic environments and adversely affecting biocenoses globally. Microplastics are globally responsible for being a major source of plastics in...
