Mangrove diversity and its relationships with environmental conditions in Kuala Bubon Village, West Aceh, Indonesia
Not relevant to microplastics — this is an ecological field study assessing mangrove species diversity and forest structure in Kuala Bubon Village, West Aceh, Indonesia, and correlating species presence with local physical and chemical environmental conditions.
Effect of community participation on sustainable development: an assessment of sustainability domains in Malaysia
This paper is not relevant to microplastics — it investigates how community participation in coral reef conservation programs affects sustainable development outcomes in Malaysia.
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.
Abundance of Microplastics in Mangrove Sediments on Pari Island, Jakarta Bay, Indonesia
Researchers sampled mangrove sediments on Pari Island in Jakarta Bay in two seasons and identified microplastics by shape, color, size, and polymer type, finding that seasonal variation affected abundance and distribution. The study documents microplastic accumulation in a mangrove ecosystem adjacent to the Indonesian capital.
Profil Pencemaran Mikroplastik Pada Sedimen Ekosistem Mangrove di Pulau Serangan, Bali
Indonesian researchers measured microplastic contamination in mangrove sediments at Serangan Island, Bali, sampling across different depths and land-use types to map the distribution of plastic particles in this coastal ecosystem. Mangroves act as natural plastic traps due to their dense root networks, making them important sentinels for monitoring coastal plastic pollution.
Impact of Pest and Diseases on Mangrove Forest Rehabilitation in Indonesia: A Review
This review examines how pests and diseases affect mangrove forest rehabilitation efforts across Indonesia. Researchers found that various insects, fungi, and other organisms damage mangrove leaves and roots, leading to failures in replanting programs. While not directly about microplastics, the study highlights the broader environmental pressures facing coastal ecosystems that also serve as natural filters for marine pollutants.
City Branding Againts Climate Change and Health Disruption in Prone Region: Initial Study From Semarang Citizen’s Dealing With Specific Waste Management on Pandemic Covid-19.
Not relevant to microplastics — this study examines citizen attitudes toward COVID-19 waste management in Semarang, Indonesia, as a proxy for city resilience and branding in the context of climate change.
Sampah Plastik di Perairan Pesisir dan Laut : Implikasi Kepada Ekosistem Pesisir Dki Jakarta
This Indonesian-language paper examines the impact of plastic waste on coastal and marine ecosystems in Jakarta, including effects on mangrove ecosystems where plastic can cover seedlings. It reviews government efforts to manage plastic waste in a region with extensive coastal and island territories.
Peningkatan Kesadaran Masyarakat Pesisir Pangandaran dalam Menangani Dampak Sampah di Lingkungan Pesisir
This Indonesian community engagement study aimed to raise awareness among coastal residents of Pangandaran about the impacts of plastic waste pollution on marine environments. Community education and behavior change are essential components of reducing the plastic waste that degrades into microplastics.
Climate Change Community-Based and Ecosystem-Based Adaptation Strategies in Selected Coastal Barangays in Masinloc, Zambales, Philippines
This study examined climate change adaptation strategies in coastal communities in the Philippines, assessing the urgency of adopting both community and ecosystem-based approaches. The paper is focused on climate resilience planning rather than microplastic contamination.
Mangrove Health: A Review of Functions, Threats, and Challenges Associated with Mangrove Management Practices
This review describes how mangrove forests protect coastlines, store carbon, and support marine life, but are under increasing threat from development, pollution, and climate change. Mangrove loss matters for microplastic pollution because these ecosystems act as natural filters that can trap plastic particles before they spread further into the ocean and food chain.
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.
Peer Review #2 of "Large-scale differences in diversity and functional adaptations of prokaryotic communities from conserved and anthropogenically impacted mangrove sediments in a tropical estuary (v0.2)"
This is a peer review comment on a study examining microbial communities in mangrove sediments affected by human activities. It is a peer review document, not a primary research paper, and is not directly focused on microplastics.
A review on microplastic pollution in the mangrove wetlands and microbial strategies for its remediation
Researchers reviewed the growing problem of microplastic pollution in mangrove wetland ecosystems and its effects on the biological communities that depend on these habitats. They found that microplastic exposure can substantially alter the microbial communities critical to nutrient cycling in mangrove environments. The review also explores microbial bioremediation strategies as a sustainable approach to addressing plastic pollution in these threatened coastal ecosystems.
Efforts to Increase Public Awareness About Microplastic Hazards in Communities at the Coastal Beach of Padang
Community outreach activities in Padang, Indonesia, aimed to raise public awareness about the hazards of microplastics, particularly at coastal beaches where plastic waste accumulates. The study documents how environmental education programs can build local capacity for addressing plastic pollution.
Identifikasi Sampah Laut pada Ekosistem Mangrove di Batukaras Kabupaten Pangandaran, Jawa Barat
This Indonesian study identified and categorized marine litter trapped in mangrove roots in West Java, finding predominantly plastic items. Mangroves can capture plastic debris from coastal waters, acting as both sinks and potential sources of microplastics as trapped items slowly degrade.
Extreme Weather Changes and Their Impact on Marine and Terrestrial Ecosystems in Banten Province
This study assessed the combined impacts of climate change extremes and microplastic pollution on marine and terrestrial ecosystems in Banten Province, Indonesia, finding that sea-level rise, mangrove degradation, and microplastic contamination are compounding ecological stressors.
The The structure of mangrove communities in response to water quality in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia
Researchers examined the structure of mangrove communities in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia in relation to water quality parameters, finding that degraded water quality from urban pollution was associated with changes in mangrove species composition and community structure.

Spatial distribution of microplastics in the superficial sediment of a mangrove in Southeast Brazil: A comparison between fringe and basin
Microplastic distribution was compared between fringe and basin mangrove zones in southeastern Brazil, finding that basin forests trapped significantly more microplastics than fringe areas due to lower hydrodynamic energy and greater sediment retention.
Role of mangrove forest in interception of microplastics (MPs): Challenges, progress, and prospects
This review examines how mangrove forests intercept and accumulate microplastics from terrestrial, marine, and atmospheric sources, identifying knowledge gaps in understanding the mechanisms, ecological impacts, and long-term fate of trapped microplastics in mangrove ecosystems.
Scient metrics analysis of mangrove studies from 1980 to 2020
This scientometric review analyzed 40 years of published research on mangrove ecosystems, tracking how scientific focus has shifted from basic ecology to conservation and human impact assessment. Mangroves are important coastal filters that trap plastic debris and microplastics before they reach the open ocean.
