Linking social drivers of marine debris with actual marine debris on beaches

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2012
The drivers (social) and pressures (physical) of marine debris have typically been examined separately. We redress this by using social and beach surveys at nine Tasmanian beaches, across three coastlines and within three categories of urbanisation, to examine whether people acknowledge that their actions contribute to the issue of marine debris, and ...

Marine debris knows no boundaries: Characteristics of debris accumulation in marine protected areas of the Florida Keys

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2021
Marine debris is a persistent and pervasive threat worldwide including inside marine protected areas (MPAs). To assess marine debris accumulation rates and potential impacts, we counted and evaluated trap, non-trap fishing gear, and non-fishing debris in unprotected areas and MPAs with different management boundary regulations in the Florida Keys (USA).

Evaluating the impacts of marine debris on cetaceans

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2014
Global in its distribution and pervading all levels of the water column, marine debris poses a serious threat to marine habitats and wildlife. For cetaceans, ingestion or entanglement in debris can cause chronic and acute injuries and increase pollutant loads, resulting in morbidity and mortality.

Facing marine debris in China

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2022
China is one of the largest waste importers and producers in the world, with land-based discharges mainly from domestic sewage and industrial wastes being the main source of marine debris (MD) including three distributional types as stranding on the beach (BMD), floating on the water surface (FMD), and submerging into sediments (SMD).

Remote sensing of marine debris

2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2016
The accumulation and impacts in the ocean of marine debris generated by anthropogenic activities and aggravated by natural disasters are of growing concern, yet our existing data collection systems are rudimentary and cannot answer even fundamental questions.

The impact of debris on marine life

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2015
Marine debris is listed among the major perceived threats to biodiversity, and is cause for particular concern due to its abundance, durability and persistence in the marine environment. An extensive literature search reviewed the current state of knowledge on the effects of marine debris on marine organisms.
