ClearCorrection: Ricciardi et al. Microplastics in the Aquatic Environment: Occurrence, Persistence, Analysis, and Human Exposure. Water 2021, 13, 973
This is a published correction notice for a previously published review article on microplastics in aquatic environments.
Correction: Comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis of microplastic prevalence and abundance in freshwater fish species: the effect of fish species habitat, feeding behavior, and Fulton’s condition factor
This is a correction notice for a previously published meta-analysis on microplastic prevalence in freshwater fish and does not contain new scientific findings.
Widespread Microplastic Pollution in Central Appalachian Streams: Implications for Freshwater Ecosystem Sustainability
Researchers evaluated microplastic pollution in freshwater streams across central Appalachia by examining the gut contents of 55 northern hogsucker fish from seven streams. They found an average of nearly 40 microplastic particles per fish, with the highest contamination in watersheds affected by mining, agriculture, and urban development. The study fills an important gap in understanding microplastic contamination in Appalachian freshwater systems and its potential consequences for ecosystem health.
Correction: Corrigendum: The presence of microplastics in commercial salts from different countries
This brief notice is a correction to a previously published paper reporting microplastic contamination in commercial salts. The corrigendum addresses technical errors in the original study findings without changing the overall conclusion that microplastics are detectable in sea salt intended for human consumption.
Correction: Comprehensive investigation on microplastics from source to sink
This correction clarifies that a prior review paper mischaracterized evidence on microplastic gut translocation, replacing the incorrect statement that most spherical microplastics pass through the gut wall with the accurate interpretation of the cited source.
Correction to: Microplastics in seawater: sampling strategies, laboratory methodologies, and identification techniques applied to port environment
This is a correction notice for a previously published paper on microplastic sampling and analysis methods in seawater from port environments. Methodological consistency is important for accurate tracking of microplastic contamination in high-traffic coastal areas.
Correction to “Microplastic Human Dietary Uptake from 1990 to 2018 Grew across 109 Major Developing and Industrialized Countries but Can Be Halved by Plastic Debris Removal”
Researchers published a correction to a large modeling study that tracked human dietary microplastic intake across 109 countries from 1990 to 2018, updating the units used for key intake parameters so that results are correctly expressed in kilograms per person per day. The underlying finding — that microplastic ingestion grew over this period but could be significantly reduced by removing plastic debris — remains unchanged.
Corrigendum: The presence of microplastics in commercial salts from different countries
Researchers published a corrigendum correcting an earlier study on the presence of microplastics in commercial salts from different countries, originally published in Scientific Reports in April 2017. The correction addresses specific errors or updates in the original article's data or methodology.
Correction: Effects of microplastic exposure on the body condition and behaviour of planktivorous reef fish (Acanthochromis polyacanthus)
This is a published correction to a previous study that examined how microplastic exposure affects the body condition and behavior of a planktivorous reef fish species. The correction addresses errors in the original article's data or methodology. The original research investigated whether ingesting microplastics changes how reef fish feed, grow, and behave in their natural environment.
Correction to: Risk-based management framework for microplastics in aquatic ecosystems
Researchers corrected mathematical errors in a previously published risk framework for microplastics in water, recalculating how particle volume and surface area were estimated. The corrected safety threshold values shifted modestly and all fell within the original confidence intervals, so the overall management conclusions remain unchanged despite the calculation fixes.
Correction: Metal–organic framework applications for microplastic remediation: exploring pathways and future potential
This is a published correction notice for a review article on using metal-organic frameworks to remove microplastics — it corrects errors in the original paper and contains no new findings.
Correction to “SettlingVelocities of SmallMicroplastic Fragments and Fibers”
This paper provides a published correction to a prior study on settling velocities of small microplastic fragments and fibers, addressing errors in the original data, calculations, or figures to ensure accurate reporting of particle sedimentation behavior relevant to environmental transport modeling.
Correction: Tiny pollutants, big consequences: investigating the influence of nano- and microplastics on soil properties and plant health with mitigation strategies
This is a correction notice for a previously published review paper about how nano- and microplastics affect soil and plant health. The original paper examined how these tiny plastic particles change soil properties and harm plants. No new findings are presented in this correction.
Correction to Human Consumption of Microplastics
This paper is a published correction to the 2019 study "Human Consumption of Microplastics" by Cox et al., which estimated how many microplastic particles people ingest annually through food, water, and air. The correction updates specific data or calculations in that widely cited paper.
Corrigendum to “Atmospheric microplastic input into wetlands: Spatiotemporal patterns, drivers, and unique ecological impacts” [Water Research, 268 (2025): 122601]
This corrigendum corrects published data on atmospheric microplastic deposition into wetlands, updating spatiotemporal patterns presented in a previous paper. The correction addresses specific data errors without changing the overall conclusions of the original study.
