Modeling the Fate and Distribution of Floating Litter Particles in the Aegean Sea (E. Mediterranean) [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2017
A circulation model is coupled to a Lagrangian particle-tracking model to simulate the transport floating litter particles in the Aegean Sea, Greece (Eastern Mediterranean). Considering different source regions and release dates, simulations were carried

Floating Macro Litter in European Rivers -Top Items [PDF]

, 2018
The JRC exploratory project RIMMEL provides information about litter, mainly plastic waste, entering the European Seas through river systems. RIMMEL has collected data on riverine floating macro litter inputs to the sea. Data acquisition was based on the Riverine Litter Observation Network (RiLON) activities, which collected data from rivers in the ...

Visual observations of floating macro litter around Italy (Mediterranean Sea) [PDF]

Mediterranean Marine Science, 2019
We report the results of a visual survey of floating natural (NML) and anthropogenic (AML) macro-litter (>2.5 cm) performed in the central part of the Mediterranean Sea during a dual-use campaign onboard the Italian Navy tall ship “Amerigo Vespucci” which circumnavigated the Italian peninsula during May-June 2016.

Regional contingencies in the relationship between aboveground biomass and litter in the world’s grasslands [PDF]

, 2013
Based on regional-scale studies, aboveground production and litter decomposition are thought to positively covary, because they are driven by shared biotic and climatic factors.
