Microplastics accumulation in functional feeding guilds and functional habit groups of freshwater macrobenthic invertebrates: Novel insights in a riverine ecosystem

Marco Bertoli et al.

Summary: This study investigated microplastics contamination in a macrobenthic invertebrate community in the Vipacco River, northeast Italy, finding that microplastics were found in 48.5% of taxa with the highest accumulation in collector gatherers and predators, likely originating from urban wastewater discharge points along the river.

Microplastics in freshwater sediments: Effects on benthic invertebrate communities and ecosystem functioning assessed in artificial streams

J. M. Carlos Silva et al.

Summary: The study aimed to assess the effects of polyethylene microplastics (PE-MPs) on freshwater benthic macroinvertebrate community structure and functional endpoints, such as primary production and leaf litter decomposition. Exposure to PE-MPs led to changes in macroinvertebrate community structure, but did not significantly affect functional endpoints. Further research is needed to understand the ecological consequences of microplastics in freshwater environments.

Occurrence and Quantification of Natural and Microplastic Items in Urban Streams: The Case of Mugnone Creek (Florence, Italy)

Valentina Rimondi et al.

Summary: The terrestrial environment is a significant source of microplastics that end up in the oceans. Urban streams, such as Mugnone Creek in Florence, Italy, play a crucial role in the transport of microplastics from the terrestrial source to marine areas. This study found that the flux of microplastics and natural fibers in the creek was influenced by urbanization, rainfall, domestic wastewater discharge, and vehicular traffic.

Gathering at the top? Environmental controls of microplastic uptake and biomagnification in freshwater food webs

Stefan Krause et al.

Summary: Microplastics are widely distributed in the environment, but the mechanisms by which they enter freshwater food webs and are subject to physical and geological controls are not well understood. This knowledge gap hinders the assessment of exposure risks, ecotoxicological impacts, and public health impacts from microplastics.

Occurrence and characterization of microplastic and mesoplastic pollution in the Migliarino San Rossore, Massaciuccoli Nature Park (Italy)

Costanza Scopetani et al.

Summary: The study focused on the occurrence and identification of mesoplastics and microplastics in sand samples collected from the beach of the Nature Park of Migliarino San Rossore Massaciuccoli in Pisa, Italy. It found that microplastics and mesoplastics were present in all samples with average concentrations of 207 +/- 30 MPs/kg d.w. and 100 +/- 44 MEPs/kg d.w. respectively. The major sources of plastic pollution were considered to be seasonal changes in the flow of the Arno River, industrial activities, and urban footprint.

Summary: This study investigated the occurrence, morphology, and identification of microplastics in Black Sea sediments at different depths using a non-invasive method. The research found that microplastics were present in 83% of sediment samples, with polyethylene and polypropylene being the most abundant plastic polymers, and fibers being the dominant type of microplastics in sediments.

Microplastics in freshwater sediment: A review on methods, occurrence, and sources

Ling Yang et al.

Summary: This paper summarizes the occurrence and characteristics of microplastics in freshwater sediments, highlighting their ubiquitous presence and varying abundance in rivers, lakes, and reservoirs. The dominant shape of microplastics in freshwater sediment is fibers with a diameter less than 1 mm, with white/transparent and PE/PS as the most frequently recorded colors and types. The consistency in morphological characteristics and components of microplastics between marine and freshwater sediments may indicate their interlinkages and source-pathways.

An Overview of Studies on Meiofaunal Traits of the Littoral Zone of Lakes

Marco Cifoni et al.

Summary: The study provides an overview of lake littoral zone meiofauna traits, finding a pronounced Raunkiaeran shortfall for all taxa other than diet and feeding habits, especially for soft-bodied organisms. The deficiency is attributed to various factors, including the need for high taxonomic expertise and intrinsic difficulties in observing small organisms. The relationship with temperature has not been sufficiently explored and formalized in any of the examined traits, highlighting the need for further research as climate change impacts on lake littorals are expected to be severe.

Annelids in Extreme Aquatic Environments: Diversity, Adaptations and Evolution

Christopher J. Glasby et al.

Summary: Annelids, including polychaetes and clitellates, have developed various morphological, physiological, and behavioral adaptations to survive in different environments, such as on land, beaches, and underwater. They share common adaptations such as constructing protective cocoons and developing gills, but also have specific adaptations unique to each group, allowing them to thrive in diverse habitats.

Co-occurrence and potential resource partitioning between oligochaetes and chironomid larvae in a sediment depth gradient

Summary: The research in the Vistula Lagoon revealed that detritivorous Tubificinae and chironomid larvae have the highest density at the depth of 0-10 cm, with significant co-occurrence in the layers of 0-2 cm and 2-5 cm. Their interactions in sediment reworking show complementary roles, with Chironomus larvae affecting deeper layers and Oligochaeta affecting both deeper and surface layers, avoiding competitive exclusion and allowing for co-occurrence.

Microplastics in aquatic environments: A review on occurrence, distribution, toxic effects, and implications for human health

Gustavo Axel Elizalde-Velazquez et al.

Summary: Microplastics, which are fragments, fibers, granules, flakes, and spheres with a diameter or length of less than 5 mm, can enter aquatic environments through the breakdown of larger plastics or sewage spillage. Once in the environment, they may be transported via wind and water movement, posing a threat to aquatic organisms and potentially affecting human health. Research focuses on the distribution of microplastics in global aquatic ecosystems, their impact on aquatic organisms, and the potential toxic effects on humans.
