Summary
Researchers review microplastic sources, transport pathways, and degradation dynamics in both marine and freshwater ecosystems — including lakes, rivers, and estuaries — and assess current methods for exposure analysis and microplastic removal from aquatic environments.
Study Type
Environmental
Microplastics were first observed in the marine environment but they were found recently in freshwater ecosystems including lakes, rivers, and estuaries. He we review microplastics with focus on sources, transport and degradation in aquatic systems, contamination of...
