Microplastic Pollution: Threats and Impacts on Global Marine Ecosystems

Sustainability, 2023
This study investigates the scope of global marine microplastic pollution and its implications on marine ecosystems and human health. We first delve into how plastic enters the ocean, with an emphasis on the accumulation of plastic along coastlines ...

Nexus between trade, industrialization, and marine pollution: A quantile regression approach

Ecological Indicators, 2023
In the recent decades, developing nations aim to industrialize and grow sustainably often ignoring the environmental consequences. However, few empirical studies have looked at the influence of industrialization-driven economic transition on marine ...

Effects of Preparedness on Successful Emergency Response to Ship Accident Pollution Using a Bayesian Network

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
With the rapid development of international trade and the fast growth of port freight volumes, the risk of ship pollution in marine areas has significantly increased.

Large-scale Detection of Marine Debris in Coastal Areas with Sentinel-2 [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Detecting and quantifying marine pollution and macro-plastics is an increasingly pressing ecological issue that directly impacts ecology and human health. Efforts to quantify marine pollution are often conducted with sparse and expensive beach surveys, which are difficult to conduct on a large scale.

The marine pollution control from industrial sources in Bangladesh : a legal study [PDF]

, 2021
Marine pollution from industrial sources is a key concern for the government of Bangladesh. Bangladesh is not an industrialised country, but the rapid growth of industry has created a serious marine pollution problem in this country.

Knowledge about Microplastic in Mediterranean Tributary River Ecosystems: Lack of Data and Research Needs on Such a Crucial Marine Pollution Source

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Plastic debris occurring in freshwater environments, which can either come from the surrounding terrestrial areas or transported from upstream, has been identified as one of the main sources and routes of plastic pollution in marine systems. The ocean is

Microplastic pollution in marine environment [PDF]

, 2020
Plastic is constructed from linking of hydrocarbon monomers and produced synthetic polymers. Plastic production reported is growing up steadily each year due to its demand based on Figure 2.1.

Fish carcass deposition to suppress invasive lake trout through hypoxia causes limited, non‐target effects on benthic invertebrates in Yellowstone Lake

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 470-483, December 2022., 2022
In Yellowstone Lake, Wyoming, lake trout carcasses are used to suppress invasive lake trout embryos in an effort to conserve native Yellowstone cutthroat trout. Using a field experiment, we determined that carcass treatment had limited, non‐target effects on benthic invertebrates.

Study on the Legal Issues of Preventing and Controlling Pollution Damage to Marine Environment Caused by Ocean Engineering Construction Projects

Haiyang Kaifa yu guanli, 2023
In recent years, with the increasing prosperity of marine economy, marine engineering construction projects not only had promoted the development of marine economy, but also increased the possibility of harming the marine environment.

Transition paths of marine debris and the stability of the garbage patches [PDF]

, 2020
We used transition path theory (TPT) to infer "reactive" pathways of floating marine debris trajectories. The TPT analysis was applied on a pollution-aware time-homogeneous Markov chain model constructed from trajectories produced by satellite-tracked undrogued buoys from the NOAA Global Drifter Program.
