Surface Detachment and Bed Entrainment of Fluvial Plastics
Abstract Over the last decade, fluvial plastics have been identified as major threat to aquatic environments and human health. In order to develop adequate mitigation strategies for plastic pollution, a fundamental process understanding of riverine plastic transport is of significant importance.

ZnGa2O4:Cr3+ nanoparticles with persistent luminescence are synthesized and optimized for labeling microplastics via cryomilling. The solvothermal method provides superior optical properties, enabling background‐free imaging. These luminescent particles are successfully used to trace microplastic uptake and distribution in Daphnia magna, offering a ...

Riverine macroplastic monitoring in Myanmar: sources and pollution dynamics in the Bago River
Global plastic pollution has been highlighted as an important environmental issue that requires urgent attention. Macroplastics, plastic items >2.5 cm, contribute the majority to global plastic pollution by mass and are the easiest to manage or remove ...

Urban River Water Level Increase Through Plastic Waste Accumulation at a Rack Structure
Plastic debris in water systems is a major challenge for our ecosystem, because it is extremely persistent in the environment. Apart from the importance of reducing the amount of plastic entering the ocean, clearing the rivers from debris is important ...

Riverine plastic emission from Jakarta into the ocean
Plastic pollution in aquatic environments is an increasing global risk. In recent years, marine plastic pollution has been studied to a great extent, and it has been hypothesized that land-based plastics are its main source.
