Plastic Pirates sample litter at rivers in Germany – Riverside litter and litter sources estimated by schoolchildren

Environmental Pollution, 2019
Rivers are an important source of marine anthropogenic litter, but the particular origins of riverine litter itself have not been well established. Here we used a citizen science approach where schoolchildren examined litter at riversides and identified possible sources at over 250 sampling spots along large and small rivers in Germany, during autumn ...

To litter or not to litter that is the question, or the impact of tourist litter pollution on the macrofauna

Applied Soil Ecology, 2023
Discarded bottles abandoned by tourists in forests pose a considerable threat to invertebrates that has not been adequately researched to date. In order to investigate this matter, empty PET bottles and aluminium cans containing small amounts of 5 qualitatively different beverages they were originally filled with were placed simultaneously in forests ...

Of Litter and Letters

TEXT, 2005
You do not have to be a cyber culture freak to decide that life is too short to accommodate the rows of books lining your bookshelves. Like the narrator in Gerald Murnane’s ‘In Far Field’, you might fancy driving to a paper-manufacturing plant and dumping boxfuls of books down the chute (Murnane 1995).

Litter Fall and Litter Breakdown in Miombo

1975
The area of Africa where woodland is dominant covers 12.1 percent, or 3.8 × 106 km2, of the land area (Malaisse et al., 1972). The main part of this area corresponds closely to the Zambezian Domain (White, 1965). In the vicinity of Lubumbashi miombo woodland comprises over 90 percent of the country; Brachystegia spp. and Julbemardia paniculata (Benth.)

The Effects of Litter on Littering Behavior in a Forest Environment

Environment and Behavior, 1977
Previous research has suggested that there are stimuli in the environment that can influence the amount of litter discarded in that environment. This experiment investigated the effects of litter already present within an area on littering behavior in a forest setting. The study was conducted for a period of four successive Fridays. The first and third

Babesiosis in a litter of pups

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1988
Babesia canis infection was diagnosed in a litter of seven 3-week-old Mastiff pups kept in a north Florida kennel. The pups were evaluated because of poor weight gain; the smallest pup also was markedly lethargic. Six of the pups were anemic and thrombocytopenic.

Compaction of poultry litter

Bioresource Technology, 2010
Poultry litter, a combination of accumulated chicken manure, feathers and bedding materials, is a potential feedstock for bioenergy and other value-added applications. The use of this waste product has been historically limited to within few miles of the place of generation because of its inherent low density.

“Litterers”

The ANNALS of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, 2012
How do people get constructed as “litterers” through objects of litter on the ground? Middle- and working-class white and black homeowners of the suburb under ethnographic study believe that litter is a significant problem in their community.

Decomposition of Pinus sylvestris litter in litter bags: Influence of underlying native litter layer

Soil Biology and Biochemistry, 1998
Abstract Pinus sylvestris (L.) litter confined in 1-mm mesh litter bags was incubated on layers of either P. sylvestris or Picea abies (Dietra.) litter of different origins (native litters) under standard conditions in the laboratory. The decomposition rate of the confined litter was measured both as evolution of CO 2 and as mass loss.
