Microplastics in Marine and Coastal Ecosystems: Sources, Distribution, Ecological Impact, and Mitigation Prospects
AI summary Read the abstract
This review chapter summarizes how microplastics enter marine and coastal environments—through runoff, maritime activity, and wastewater discharge—and documents their toxic effects on seabirds, marine mammals, turtles, and other wildlife. With annual global plastic production at 280 million tonnes and a substantial fraction reaching the ocean, the authors assess current mitigation strategies and their limitations.
