Literature regarding microplastics in the atmosphere has advanced in recent years.
However, studies have been undertaken in isolation with minimal collaboration and …

The discovery of atmospheric micro (nano) plastic transport and ocean–atmosphere
exchange points to a highly complex marine plastic cycle, with negative implications for …

In this paper, the current knowledge on tyre and road wear particles (TRWP) is compiled
regarding all environmental and health aspects. TRWP generated on roads during driving …

The accumulation of plastic litter in natural environments is a global issue. Concerns over
potential negative impacts on the economy, wildlife, and human health provide strong …

Tire wear particles (TWP) are assumed to be one of the major sources of microplastic
pollution to the environment. However, many of the previously published studies are based …

Tire microplastics (TMPs) are identified as one of the most abundant types of microplastics,
which originate from rubber with intended or unintended release. While increasing …

Abstract Microplastic/nanoplastics (MPs/NPs) contamination is not only emerging threat to
the agricultural system but also constitute global hazard to the environment worldwide …

Wear and tear from tyres significantly contributes to the flow of (micro-) plastics into the
environment. This paper compiles the fragmented knowledge on tyre wear and tear …

The sources of microplastics and other anthropogenic particles in freshwater are not well
understood. The Greater Toronto Area, Canada's most populous urban area, offers a great …

Quantifying the transport of plastic debris from river to sea is crucial for assessing the risks of
plastic debris to human health and the environment. We present a global modelling …
