ClearJenis dan Kelimpahan Mikroplastik pada Air Laut Pantai Lamaru Kecamatan Balikpapan Timur Provinsi Kalimantan Timur
Researchers sampled seawater from Lamaru Beach in East Kalimantan, Indonesia, and found microplastics of three types: fibers, fragments, and films. The study provides baseline contamination data for this coastal area. The presence of microplastics in coastal seawater raises concerns for marine life and communities that depend on this ocean environment.
Types of mesoplastic waste in the Manggar Beach tourism area, Balikpapan City, East Kalimantan
Researchers identified and analyzed the types, weights, quantities, and composition of mesoplastic waste (5-25 mm) in the Manggar Beach tourism area of Balikpapan, finding significant coastal plastic pollution threatening the local marine ecosystem.
Jenis Dan Kelimpahan Mikroplastik Pada Air Di Pantai Manggar Kota Balikpapan, Kalimantan Timur
Researchers identified the types and quantified the abundance of microplastics in water at Manggar Beach, Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, comparing microplastic type distribution and examining potential sources of contamination at this coastal site.
Jenis Dan Kelimpahan Mikroplastik Pada Air Di Pesisir Pantai Monpera Kota Balikpapan Kalimantan Timur
This Indonesian-language study measured microplastic abundance and type in coastal surface water at Monpera Beach in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan. Samples were collected at 0-20 cm depth using purposive sampling and analyzed for particle size, shape, and polymer type.
Occurrence of Macro- and Micro-Plastics on Pasir Pandak Beach, Sarawak, Malaysia
Researchers documented the presence of both macro- and microplastics on Pasir Pandak Beach in Sarawak, Malaysia, finding microplastics more abundant than macroplastics, with fibers and fragments dominating and HDPE, polyester, polypropylene, and polystyrene as the primary polymer types identified.
Beach macro-litter monitoring and floating microplastic in a coastal area of Indonesia
Researchers surveyed floating microplastic and beach litter in Cilacap Bay, Indonesia over three years, finding polypropylene and low-density polyethylene dominated plastic debris at 2.5 mg/m concentration, with most particles showing only slight weathering — highlighting persistent pollution from inadequate waste management in the region.
Kelimpahan Makroplastik Di Wilayah Perairan Muara Sembilang Samboja Kabupaten Kutai Kartanegara
This Indonesian study measured the abundance of macroplastic debris in the estuary waters of East Kalimantan. The high levels of large plastic items documented in this coastal waterway represent potential sources of microplastic pollution as the materials fragment over time.
The Relationship Between Macroplastic and Large-microplastic Abundance in the Northern Coastal Region of West Peninsular Malaysia
This study examined the relationship between macroplastic litter and large microplastic particles on beaches in the northern coastal region of Peninsular Malaysia, finding a positive correlation between the two. Macroplastic debris on beaches is a direct source of microplastics as it breaks down under UV exposure and physical abrasion.
Marine debris in tourism area of Dodola Island Beach, Morotai Island District
This paper is not directly about microplastics; it characterizes the composition and density of marine debris on a tourism beach in Morotai Island, Indonesia, documenting the types and quantities of litter including plastics at a macro scale.
The abundance of Plastic Marine Debris on Beaches in Ambon Bay
Researchers measured plastic marine debris — including large microplastics, mesoplastics, and macroplastics — on two beaches in Ambon Bay, Indonesia. The study provides baseline data on plastic pollution levels in a region with growing coastal populations and limited plastic waste management infrastructure.
Identifikasi Jenis Dan Kelimpahan Sampah Laut Di Pesisir Pantai Pemedas Kecamatan Samboja Kabupaten Kutai Kartanegara Kalimantan Timur
This Indonesian study identified and classified marine litter along the coastline of a district in East Kalimantan, finding that plastic was the dominant material. The research documents the scale of plastic waste reaching coastal areas in a rapidly developing region of Indonesia.
Komposisi Dan Kepadatan Sampah Laut Pada Tiga Bagian Dari Pantai Mangatasik Kecamatan Tombariri Kabupaten Minahasa
This paper is not about microplastics — it surveys the composition and density of meso- and macro-scale marine debris on a tourist beach in Indonesia, cataloguing litter types but not examining microplastic-scale particles or health effects.
Karakteristik dan Sebaran Sampah Terdampar di Kawasan Pesisir Taman Nasional Bali Barat
This study characterized marine debris washed ashore in a national park in Bali, Indonesia, cataloging the types and distribution of litter across the coastline. The findings highlight how high-population and tourism activity contributes to coastal plastic contamination even in protected conservation areas.
Marine Macro- and Micro Plastic Litter on Beach Sediment of Northern Peninsular Malaysia
A survey of beaches on Malaysia's northern Peninsular coast found abundant macro- and microplastic litter in sediments, with a correlation between the amount of macroplastic debris and microplastic concentration in the same area. The findings suggest that reducing visible plastic litter on beaches would also reduce the microplastic load accumulating in coastal sediments, where it can persist and affect marine organisms for decades.
Microplastic Distribution in Sediments in Coastal of Pariaman City, West Sumatera Province
Indonesian researchers surveyed microplastic distribution in sediments along the coast of Pariaman City, West Sumatra, finding plastic particles throughout the study area. Higher concentrations near tourism areas and residential zones suggest that local human activities are the primary sources of coastal microplastic contamination.
Abundance and Distribution of Macro- and Mesoplastic Debris on Selected Beaches in the Northern Strait of Malacca
Macro- and mesoplastic debris surveys at four beaches in the northern Strait of Malacca, Malaysia, found concentrations up to 9.77 g per square meter of macroplastics, dominated by packaging materials, with even a Marine Protected Area site showing significant plastic accumulation.
Marine Macro- And Microplastic Litter Along The Coastal Area Of Kuala Perlis
Researchers surveyed macro- and microplastic litter along the coastal area of Kuala Perlis in northern Malaysia, finding plastic debris at all sampling sites. The study provides baseline contamination data for this understudied coastal region.
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.

Researchers found microplastics in sediments along Kaliratu Beach in Indonesia at concentrations of 25–57.5 particles/kg, with fibres, fragments, films, and pellets all present, and used hydrodynamic modelling to trace how seasonal monsoon currents distribute them along the coastline. The findings highlight that even relatively remote Indonesian coastal areas near shrimp ponds and other anthropogenic activity are accumulating measurable plastic pollution.
