Researchers assessed the suitability of beach tourism conditions at Padang Beach, West Sumatra, to support sustainable marine tourism practices. The study highlights how increased tourist activity can contribute to anthropogenic pollution, including plastic waste, in coastal environments.
Assessments of physical, social, and economic vulnerability in Tarakan due to climate change
Researchers assessed the physical, social, and economic vulnerability of coastal communities in Tarakan City, Indonesia to climate change using Likert and Guttman scales and Spearman rank correlation, finding high physical vulnerability (80%) and medium socioeconomic vulnerability (52%) among residents in disaster-prone coastal zones.
Resilience And Sustainability in Tourism-Forestry Systems Through Risk Management Framework: Review and Concept
Not relevant to microplastics — this paper proposes a risk management framework for tourism-forestry systems in Malaysia, focused on resilience and sustainability in forest tourism.
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.
Sustainable Tourism as the Management Option for Litter Problems in Tasik and Leuweung Sancang Garut Coastal Areas, Indonesia
Researchers assessed marine debris and plastic litter problems along the Tasikmalaya and Garut coastline in Indonesia and evaluated sustainable tourism as a management strategy. They found that remote beaches had less contamination than village-adjacent beaches, and that tourism development without proper waste management worsened litter accumulation. The study recommends integrating sustainable tourism practices with waste reduction to address coastal plastic pollution.
Delving into the Reality of Waste at Coro Beach a Comprehensive Analysis and Innovative Solution Recommendations for Community-Based Sustainable Tourism
This study analyzes waste management challenges at Coro Beach in Indonesia, examining how inadequate infrastructure and single-use plastic consumption generate marine waste and proposing community-based sustainable tourism strategies to reduce microplastic pollution.
Karakteristik Kawasan Wisata Pantai Taula'a Kecamatan Bilato Kabupaten Gorontalo Provinsi Gorontalo
This study assessed the tourism suitability of Taula'a Beach in Indonesia using the Tourism Suitability Index, finding a score of 77.4% placing it in the highest suitability category based on water depth, beach width, wave conditions, and other physical parameters. The paper focuses on coastal tourism management with no direct relevance to microplastic research.
Challenges in Implementing Sustainable Marine Tourism Policy against the Threat of Waste in Coastal Areas
Researchers investigated the challenges of implementing sustainable marine tourism policies against plastic waste pollution at coastal sites in Indonesia, including Kuta Beach, Bali, finding that government policy alone is insufficient and that community participation is essential for effective waste management.
Fostering Sustainability through Sport Tourism: Management Strategies in Mandeh Coastal Area, Indonesia
This Indonesian case study developed a sustainable sport tourism management strategy using an integrated framework, addressing the environmental challenges including plastic waste and pollution that threaten natural tourism sites while pursuing economic development goals.
Analysis of marine debris characteristics in the Mandalika special economic zone (SEZ), Lombok
Marine debris characteristics were analyzed at four beaches in the Mandalika Special Economic Zone in Lombok, Indonesia, a popular international tourism destination hosting major events. The study quantified debris types and quantities to inform mitigation strategies protecting coastal tourism infrastructure and marine ecosystem health.
Linking the Tourism Activity to the Occurrence and Distribution of Microplastics
Researchers assessed microplastic abundance, type, and spatial distribution in coastal water, sediments, and fish across three zones of Gili Trawangan, Indonesia, finding that tourism-related activities concentrated microplastics at recreational beaches with concentrations reaching 19.25 particles/L.
Distribution and mitigation efforts for microplastic pollution in Kendari bay as the mainstay coastal tourism area of Southeast Sulawesi
This study mapped the distribution of microplastic pollution in Kendari Bay in Indonesia and evaluated mitigation options. The bay, which serves as a tourism hub, showed significant plastic contamination, with debris concentrated in areas closest to urban and fishing activities.
Assessing Coastal Erosion and Climate Change Adaptation Measures: A Novel Participatory Approach
This paper is not about microplastics; it presents a participatory framework for assessing and planning coastal erosion mitigation and climate change adaptation measures, applied to a Portuguese municipality.
Sebaran Sampah Pantai di Pulau Timor, Nusa Tenggara Timur: Kajian pada Pantai Rekreasi
Indonesian researchers surveyed beach debris distribution on six tourism beaches in Timor Island, finding plastic as the dominant litter type. The study provides baseline data needed to manage coastal plastic pollution at a local level and protect both the environment and the tourism economy.
Characteristics of Marine Litters in the West Coast of Bali
This study characterized marine debris on the beach at Kuta, Bali — one of the world's most visited tourist destinations — documenting the types, quantities, and seasonal patterns of litter with plastic dominating the waste stream. The findings highlight how tourist beach management and upstream waste infrastructure failures combine to create a major marine litter problem.
Challenges and Opportunities in Managing Marine Debris: a Case Study of Pancana Village With a Bibliometric Perspective
Researchers combined bibliometric analysis of 2000-2023 marine debris literature with a field case study in Pancana Village, Indonesia, finding that plastic accounts for 78% of coastal debris and that land-based waste is the primary pollution source. The study identifies community-based waste management and policy interventions as key areas for addressing the marine debris crisis.
Microplastics distribution on the beach sediment based on satellite remote sensing: A case study in Bali, Indonesia
Researchers examined how seasonal ocean currents and tourism activity influence microplastic distribution across three beaches in Bali, Indonesia, between January and July 2024.
