Modelling floating riverine litter in the south-eastern Bay of Biscay: a regional distribution from a seasonal perspective [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2022 Although rivers contribute to the flux of litter to the marine environment, estimates of riverine litter amounts and detailed studies on floating riverine litter behaviour once it has reached the sea are still scarce.

Riverine Litter Flux to the Northeastern Part of the Black Sea
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Rivers are among the main sources of marine litter, especially for semi-isolated sea areas with high populations and intense economic activity. The semi-isolated Black Sea located in the Eastern Europe is an example of such an area, whose watershed basin
