ClearThe Issue of Microplastics (MPS) in Coastal Area Indonesia: Bibliometric Network Analysis
This bibliometric analysis reviews microplastic research published on Indonesian coastal areas between 2010 and 2022, identifying key research trends, hotspot locations, and gaps. Indonesia is one of the world's largest plastic polluters, and mapping the state of research helps direct future monitoring and policy efforts.
A Study of marine plastic pollution abatement: A bibliometric analysis on status and development trend
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.
Plastic pollution research in Indonesia: State of science and future research directions.
This meta-analysis reviews the state of plastic pollution research in Indonesia, a country identified as one of the top contributors to global plastic waste. The findings highlight significant gaps in data on microplastic contamination in Indonesian waters and ecosystems, which matters because plastic pollution from this region affects global ocean health and the seafood supply chain.
Ocean plastic crisis—Mental models of plastic pollution from remote Indonesian coastal communities
Remote coastal communities in Indonesia are overwhelmed by plastic pollution despite low plastic literacy, largely because rising living standards have increased single-use plastic consumption while geography and poor waste infrastructure leave communities with few disposal options. The study highlights the need for supply-side interventions and better waste management systems, not just consumer education.
The emerging issue of microplastics in marine environment: A bibliometric analysis from 2004 to 2020
This bibliometric analysis of marine microplastic research from 2004 to 2020 revealed rapid growth in publications, identified key research themes and collaborations, and highlighted emerging topics including microplastic impacts on marine organisms and human health.
How do humans recognize and face challenges of microplastic pollution in marine environments? A bibliometric analysis
Researchers performed a bibliometric analysis of 1,898 publications on marine microplastics, mapping research growth, collaboration networks, and thematic trends over time, and predicting that future research will increasingly focus on biological effects, human health impacts, and policy-relevant risk characterization.
Understanding the socioeconomic determinants of marine plastic pollution: Evaluating policy effectiveness and mitigation strategies in the Global South.
Researchers synthesized qualitative and quantitative evidence on marine plastic pollution in the Global South, identifying rapid urbanization, inadequate waste infrastructure, and weak governance as primary drivers, and recommending integrated strategies combining single-use plastic bans, extended producer responsibility, regional cooperation, and circular economy incentives.
A Bibliometric Analysis of Ocean Plastic Pollution Research: Trends and Future Directions
Researchers conducted a bibliometric analysis of ocean plastic pollution research using Scopus data from 2000 to 2024, applying VOSviewer to map co-authorship networks, keyword co-occurrences, and thematic clusters to identify influential contributors and emerging research directions. The analysis revealed rapid growth in publication volume and identified microplastics, marine debris, and policy-related themes as dominant research foci.
Upaya Peningkatan Kualitas Ekosistem Pesisir dan Laut melalui Kegiatan Coastal Cleanup di Desa Way Lubuk
This Indonesian study documented a coastal cleanup initiative in Way Lubuk village and assessed the composition of marine debris collected. Plastic waste dominated the collected debris, threatening local marine and coastal ecosystems. The project combined community engagement with scientific monitoring to address marine litter at the local level.
Potensi pariwisata dan penanggulangan marine debris di kawasan pesisir Kabupaten Pangandaran
This Indonesian-language study evaluates the tourism potential and marine debris management challenges in the coastal area of Pangandaran, Indonesia. The research highlights that marine debris, including plastic waste, threatens both the ecosystem and the economic value of coastal tourism.
Assessing the Environmental Impact of Plastic Pollution in Tourism: A Bibliometric Analysis
This review used bibliometric analysis to map research trends on the environmental impact of plastic pollution in tourism-dependent regions, identifying leading academic disciplines, influential authors, and key themes in the literature.
Plastic pollution research in Indonesia: state of science and future research directions to reduce impacts
This meta-analysis maps the current state of plastic pollution research across Indonesia, one of the world's top sources of ocean plastic waste. It identifies which regions and environments have been studied and where major data gaps remain. The findings can guide targeted research and policy interventions to reduce plastic — and microplastic — contamination in one of the most biodiverse marine regions on Earth.
The impact of improper solid waste management to plastic pollution in Indonesian coast and marine environment
Indonesia's plastic pollution problem in coastal and marine environments is largely driven by improper solid waste management on land, with rivers carrying significant plastic loads to the sea. The study emphasizes that improving terrestrial waste collection and disposal infrastructure is essential for reducing Indonesia's substantial contribution to ocean plastic pollution.
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on research on marine plastic pollution – A bibliometric-based assessment
Researchers conducted a bibliometric analysis of marine plastic pollution research from 2015 to 2022 and found that while the COVID-19 pandemic initially disrupted international collaboration, it also spurred new research on pandemic-related plastic waste entering the marine environment.
Bibliometric analysis for global marine microplastic pollution control from 2013 to 2022
This bibliometric analysis reviewed a decade of research on marine microplastic pollution control, analyzing over 2,300 publications. The study found that research has shifted from tracing microplastic sources and analyzing hazards toward examining the impact of economic activities and synthetic fibers, while identifying a gap in studies focused on policy implications and technological innovations for pollution control.
Identification of plastic waste generation and composition to reduce environmental disaster risk (case study: Public facility sources in Padang City)
A study in Padang City, Indonesia characterized plastic waste generation and composition at public facilities including parks, beaches, and roads as a first step toward reducing environmental disaster risk, finding that plastic waste from these sources poses significant risks of microplastic contamination in adjacent aquatic ecosystems.
Mapping the Plastic Waste Research Landscape: A bibliometric analysis of the interdisciplinary nature of plastic waste research
