A Study of marine plastic pollution abatement: A bibliometric analysis on status and development trend
Summary
Researchers conducted a bibliometric analysis of marine plastic pollution research using R software, finding that global scientific attention has grown substantially, with microplastics emerging as a central focus spanning both macro- and microscale investigations.
Marine plastic pollution, including microplastics is now becoming a serious problem around the world. It presents for marine species and environment. It presents a a serious threat to all marine life and human, while also influencing the climate. In this paper, a bibliometric analysis on marine plastic pollution is conducted by R to reveal the research progress and future trend from a qualitative and visual perceptive. The result showed that countries pay increasing attention to the research of marine garbage, especially microplastics, covering multiple scales of macro and micro. In the future, the research on marine plastic debris may focus on the monitoring of marine plastic and the treatment of microplastics.
