Microplastics in the Gulf of Mexico: a bird's eye view
Microplastic debris is a persistent, ubiquitous global pollutant in oceans, estuaries, and
freshwater systems. Some of the highest reported concentrations of microplastics, globally,
are in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM), which is home to the majority of plastic manufacturers in the
United States. A comprehensive understanding of the risk microplastics pose to wildlife is
critical to the development of scientifically sound mitigation and policy initiatives. In this
review, we synthesize existing knowledge of microplastic debris in the Gulf of Mexico and its …
