The Way of Macroplastic through the Environment [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironments - MDPI, 2020
With the focus on microplastic in current research, macroplastic is often not further considered. Thus, this review paper is the first to analyse the entry paths, accumulation zones, and sinks of macroplastic in the aquatic, terrestrial, and atmospheric environment by presenting transport paths and concentrations in the environment as well as related ...

Macroplastic Storage and Remobilization in Rivers [PDF]

open access: yesWater (Switzerland), 2020
The paper presents a conceptual model of the route of macroplastic debris (5 > mm) through a fluvial system, which can support future works on the overlooked processes of macroplastic storage and remobilization in rivers. We divided the macroplastic route into (1) input, (2) transport, (3) storage, (4) remobilization and (5) output phases. Phase

Macroplastic in Seabirds at Mirny, Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesBirds, 2020
Plastic debris makes up the majority of marine debris around the world, and pollution is a serious threat to marine wildlife. Threats represent two types of biological interactions with plastic: entanglement and ingestion. This paper describes interactions of seabirds with plastic in Mirny and draw the attention of researchers to the existing problem ...

Macroplastics in rivers: present knowledge, issues and challenges

Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts, 2021
The contextualization of macroplastics in a budget framework can help to improve our understanding of the physical processes determining macroplastic behaviour and impacts in rivers. Hence, better management practices can be adopted.

Macroplastics at sea around Antarctica

Marine Environmental Research, 2010
More so than at any previous time, there is a heightened awareness of the amount of plastic in the environment, it's spread to even remote localities and the multiple influences of this on organisms. In the austral summer of 2007/08 Greenpeace and British Antarctic Survey ships (MV Esperanza and RRS James Clark Ross respectively) conducted the first co-

From Micro‐ to Macroplasticity

Advanced Materials, 2006
Therefore, macroplasticity theories based on amechanism involving long-range dislocation motion cannotserve to predict micro-yielding. In terms of measured stress–strain behavior, the two regimes are poorly distinguished,especially when they are characterized by positive strain-hard-ening, i.e., an increase in strength when the microstructure ...

Linking macroplastic deposition to riverbank characteristics

2023
Rivers transport, and store a large share of the global plastic pollution. Riverbanks are one of the river compartments where macroplastic litter is deposited and retained. Different factors influence macroplastic deposition on riverbanks. Retention related factors such as riverbank features, and supply related factors, such as hydrometeorology or land-
