Litter in coastal and marine environments
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2022Litter is one of the most pervasive and fastest-growing anthropogenic alterations of the World's coasts and oceans. Along with climate change, litter has been identified as one of humankind's most critical environmental problems that demand urgent solutions.

The problem of marine litters for cultured teleost
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2021Here, characteristics of marine litter ingested by Pacific bluefin tuna (PBF, Thunnus orientalis) juveniles under captive conditions were investigated. Swimming speeds of PBF juveniles with pseud-ingested polystyrene chips were compared, and mortality due to polystyrene chip ingestion in cultured teleosts (red sea bream, greater amberjack, and white ...

Collected marine litter — A growing waste challenge
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2018 Marine litter, in particular plastic debris, poses a serious threat to marine life, human health and the economy. In order to reduce its impact, marine litter collections such as beach clean-ups are frequently conducted. This paper presents a systematic review of temporal developments, geographical distribution, quantities and waste treatment pathways ...

Marine litter prediction by artificial intelligence
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2004Artificial intelligence techniques of neural network and fuzzy systems were applied as alternative methods to determine beach litter grading, based on litter surveys of the Antalya coastline (the Turkish Riviera). Litter measurements were categorized and assessed by artificial intelligence techniques, which lead to a new litter categorization system ...

Marine litter on the seafloor of the southern Baltic
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2018Marine litter occurrence and composition were investigated during routine bottom trawl fish surveys type BITS performed in the Polish Maritime Areas (the southern Baltic Sea). Sampling covered a distance of 325km and an area of 16km2 at a depth range of 19-110m. Litter densities varying between 0 items/ha (34% of tows) and 2.23items/ha with a mean of 0.

Economic instruments and marine litter control
Ocean & Coastal Management, 2014This paper provides a comprehensive up-to-date review of the literature on the economic instruments that can reduce marine litter. We assess their cost of implementation, level of effectiveness as well as indirect environmental and socio-economic effects (externalities) that may arise as a result of their implementation.

Sources and Pathways of Marine Litter
2022Plastic pollution is a global transboundary threat to the planet's marine resources. Tracking pollution is crucial to implement effective marine management strategies on coastal and island regions, where mismanaged plastics are most at risk of entering the ocean.
