Perceptions of plastic pollution in a prominent fishery: Building strategies to inform management

Nina Wootton et al.

Summary: Through a case study of the South Australian Marine Scalefish Fishery, levels of awareness, knowledge and concern about marine plastic pollution from commercial and recreational fishers and fishmongers are revealed, highlighting key areas of concern, motivations for mitigation and potential management pathways.

The effect of sewage sludge containing microplastics on growth and fruit development of tomato plants

Ricardo Hernandez-Arenas et al.

Summary: This study focused on the microplastics in sewage sludge and found that microplastics have certain effects on the growth of tomato plants and fruit production. Further research is needed to validate these findings and explain the potential mechanisms of impact.

Sediment grain size determines microplastic exposure landscapes for sandy beach macroinfaunak

Peter Vermeiren et al.

Summary: Despite the global occurrence of microplastic contamination on sandy beaches, evidence of microplastic distribution within beaches remains contradictory. The abundance of microplastics decreases exponentially with increasing grain size, and significant differences in microplastic contamination between sites with varying anthropogenic influence may be related to their proximity to a freshwater canal.

Litter behaviour on Mediterranean cobble beaches, SE Spain

F. Asensio-Montesinos et al.

Summary: The study found that plastic is the dominant litter material on beaches in the Mediterranean region, with storms and beach users being the main factors affecting litter dynamics. Better management actions are needed to reduce beach litter pollution.

Marine debris in the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, a remote oceanic marine protected area in tropical SW Atlantic

Ana Carolina Grillo et al.

Summary: The study found that marine macro-debris distribution on the shores of Fernando de Noronha is uneven, influenced by oceanographic characteristics and tourism infrastructure. The windward coast accumulates more plastic debris due to ocean currents, while the leeward coast has more disposable plastics and cigarette butts from high beach user activity.

Microplastic Spectral Classification Needs an Open Source Community: Open Specy to the Rescue!

Win Cowger et al.

Summary: Open Specy is a free software solution for spectral classification, offering users the ability to view, process, identify, and share microplastic spectra. It stands out as the only open source software with a community library, and provides a range of tools for spectrum processing to build a diverse reference library for microplastics.

Assessing plastic size distribution and quantity on a remote island in the South Pacific

Emma C. Nichols et al.

Summary: This study compared floating plastics in the South Pacific Ocean and accumulated beach plastics on Henderson Island, revealing the presence of microplastics and nanoplastics, enriching the understanding of plastic threats to the environment. Particularly concerning is the large number of small plastic particles found on Henderson Island, which may pose harmful impacts on filter feeders.

Plastic litter pollution along sandy beaches in Puerto Princesa, Palawan Island, Philippines

Recca E. Sajorne et al.

Summary: The study conducted in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines, revealed high levels of marine plastic litter pollution, particularly fishing line, food packaging, and fragments. Most of the sampled sites were categorized as dirty and extremely dirty, indicating the urgent need for clean-up efforts.

Plastics in biosolids from 1950 to 2016: A function of global plastic production and consumption

Elvis D. Okoffo et al.

Summary: The study found a correlation between the concentration of plastics in treated sewage sludge and plastic production estimates, indicating a potential link between plastics production, consumption, and leakage into the environment. Prior to the 1990s, there was limited plastic leakage into biosolids, except for polystyrene, but increased leakage was observed from the 1990s onwards.

An inshore-offshore sorting system revealed from global classification of ocean litter

Carmen Morales-Caselles et al.

Summary: Global marine litter is dominated by plastic items from take-out food and fishing activities, with litter mainly trapped in nearshore areas and land-sourced plastic reaching the open ocean predominantly as small fragments.
