Floating marine macro litter in the Black Sea: Toward baselines for large scale assessment

open access: yesEnvironmental Pollution, 2022
The Black Sea is a semi-enclosed basin subject to major anthropogenic pressures, including marine litter and plastic pollution. Due to numerous large rivers draining into the basin and a population settled along the coast, the region could accumulate significant amounts of floating litter over time.

Modelling the distribution of fishing-related floating marine litter within the Bay of Biscay and its marine protected areas

open access: yesEnvironmental Pollution, 2022
Sea-based sources account for 32-50 % of total marine litter found at the European basins with the fisheries sector comprising almost 65 % of litter releases. In the south-east coastal waters of the Bay of Biscay this figure approaches the contribution of just the floating marine litter fraction.

Floating marine litter and their risks to cetaceans off Portugal

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2021
Floating Dangerous Debris For Cetaceans (DDFC) and cetacean abundances were assessed by shipboard visual surveys off continental Portugal. Plastic litter (other than fishing gear) was the most abundant category, corresponding to 56.53% of the total recorded DDFC.

Distribution of floating marine macro-litter in relation to oceanographic characteristics in the Russian Arctic Seas

open access: yesMarine Pollution Bulletin, 2021
The main objectives of this work were the acquisition of new data on floating marine macro litter (FMML) and natural floating objects in the Arctic seas, an initial assessment of the level of pollution by FMML and an analysis of potential sources. The results of this study present the first data on FMML distribution in Russian Arctic shelf seas in ...

The influence of monsoons on the spatial distribution and composition of floating marine litter

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2022
Floating marine litter (FML) surveys were conducted in the near shore waters of Mombasa, Kilifi and Kwale Counties of Kenya through trawling using a manta net. A mean density of 26,665 ± 2869 items km-2 composed of 34.8% hard plastic, 40.5% soft plastics and 22.0% plastic lines/fibers was reported in this study.
