[HTML][HTML] Evidence of microplastics from benthic jellyfish (Cassiopea xamachana) in Florida estuaries
Plastic pollution is a concern in many nearshore ecosystems, and it is critical to understand
how microplastics (plastics< 5 mm in length) affect nearshore marine biota. Here, we report …

Experimental investigation of wave attenuation by mangrove forests with submerged canopies
Mangroves can function as a 'bio-shield'to protect coastal communities from harsh
environments because of their strong ability to attenuate wave energy. However, as …
