Microplastics as an emerging threat to the freshwater ecosystems of Veeranam lake in south India: A multidimensional approach

Manikanda K. Bharath et al.

Summary: This study investigated the quality and quantity of microplastic contaminants in water and soil samples at Veeranam lake in Tamil Nadu, India, revealing a variety of microplastic particles such as nylon and polyethylene. The distribution of different types of plastic particles in water and sediment samples was also examined, with nylon, polyethylene, polystyrene, polypropylene, and PVC being the most prominent polymers found.

Microplastics in seafood as an emerging threat to marine environment: A case study in Goa, west coast of India

Mahua Saha et al.

Summary: The study revealed the presence of microplastics in various matrices in the Sal estuary, with a dominance of microplastic fibers and smaller particles in biota. These microplastics were also found in the digestive tracts of fish species and could pose a potential hazard to human health and the environment. The most prevalent polymer types identified in the study were polyacrylamide, polyacetylene, ethylene vinyl alcohol, polyvinyl chloride, and polyamide.

Characterization and distribution of microplastics in estuarine surface sediments, Kayamkulam estuary, southwest coast of India

K. Radhakrishnan et al.

Summary: The study found that microplastics in the sediments of the Kayamkulam estuary are primarily fiber and film shaped, with 1000 mu m microplastics being dominant, and polyester polypropylene and polyethylene being the main compositions. The distribution of microplastics is influenced by estuarine inundating water and the distance of the sampling site from the open sea.

Seasonal microplastic variations in estuarine sediments from urban canal on the west coast of Thailand: A case study in Phuket province

Thanakorn Jiwarungrueangkul et al.

Summary: Through analyzing plastic samples in sediment samples from the urban estuary in Phuket province, it was found that the area is moderately contaminated with microplastics, mainly originating from washing effluents, with distribution significantly governed by hydrodynamic energy.

Urban Stormwater Runoff: A Major Pathway for Anthropogenic Particles, Black Rubbery Fragments, and Other Types of Microplastics to Urban Receiving Waters

Larissa M. Werbowski et al.

Summary: The study found that urban stormwater runoff contains microplastics and other anthropogenic debris, with concentrations higher than wastewater treatment plant effluent, impacting aquatic ecosystems. Fibers and rubber fragments were the most common morphologies, indicating a need for prioritizing stormwater mitigation strategies. Rain gardens were shown to effectively remove microplastics and other debris, suggesting their potential as a mitigation strategy for microplastic pollution.
