Researchers are focused on the global issue of plastic contamination in agricultural soils
because of the known effects of plastics on the soil ecosystem. Previous reviews did not pay …

Research on microplastics (MPs) primarily focuses on the abundance in different
ecosystems, ecotoxicology, and health aspects. The primary focus is now on structural and …

Rivers have been recognized as major transport pathways for microplastics into the sea but
large-scale quantitative data on the environmental fate of riverine microplastics remains …

We combine observations from Western USA and inverse modelling to constrain global
atmospheric emissions of microplastics (MPs) and microfibers (MFs). The latter are used …

Abstract Particulate plastics (< 5 mm), including macroplastics (1 μm to 5 mm), microplastics
(100 nm to 1 μm) and nanoplastics (< 100 nm), have become a global environmental …

Plastic's widespread use in everyday life has resulted in massive amounts of plastic waste,
posing a significant environmental burden. Microplastics have been widely dispersed …

Microplastics (MPs) are a ubiquitous pollutant. They take the form of fibers, fragments,
microbeads, pellets, and foams, slowly choking up waterways, the atmosphere, and …

Effective management of pollutants in urban environments is crucial for achieving
sustainable cities. Microplastics, as an emerging pollutant widely present in contemporary …

In the past few decades, pollution from microplastics has emerged as an important issue on
a global scale. These plastic particles are mainly the result of anthropogenic activities …

Abstract Microplastics (MPx) and nanoplastics (NPx) are increasingly accumulating in
terrestrial ecosystems, heightening concerns about their potential adverse effects on human …
