II International Workshop on Marine Litter (BAMAR 2022). Libro de Abstracts
Summary
This document is the abstract book from the Second International Workshop on Marine Litter (BAMAR 2022), covering research presentations on marine debris from scientific and policy perspectives. The workshop addressed current knowledge and solutions related to plastic litter in the marine environment.
Workshop of Marine Litter (BAsuras MARinas, BAMAR) was born in the framework of VII International Symposium of Marine ScienceI(SMS 2020) as a response to current concerns about marine litter within both the scientific community and society at large. Marine litter is an urgent and highly complex subject that needs to be tackled from diverse and complementary points of view. In 2022, the workshop have a special focus on marine microplastics (MPs). BAMAR 2022 has been an open forum for exchange of current knowledge about the abundance, fate and impacts of plastic litter and MPs in the marine ecosystems. We aim to focus the directions of future research on MP pollution and to promote actions to reduce the effects of plastic pollution in marine ecosystems.
