Summary

The North Evoikos Gulf in the Aegean Sea shows measurable contamination from a combination of contaminants, nutrients, and marine litter including microplastics, reflecting the cumulative pollution pressures on semi-enclosed coastal waters. Integrated pollution assessments like this are essential for identifying where microplastic concentrations overlap with seafood harvesting and human coastal exposure.

This study compiles existing information on levels and impacts of contaminants, nutrients, and marine litter in North Evoikos Gulf, in order to provide an integrative assessment of pollution in the area. The North Evoikos Gulf is a semi-enclosed gulf in the Aegean...
