Microplastics in aquatic environment
, 2022 Mikroplastika je pojam za čestice dimenzija od 5 mm do 100 nm koje najčešće nastaju fragmentacijom plastike. U svom sastavu najčešće sadrži različite polimere i aditive, a u okolišu se može pojaviti u različitim oblicima i bojama.

Effects of Microplastics in Soil Ecosystems: Above and Below Ground.
Environmental Science and Technology, 2019 Environmental contamination by microplastics is now considered an emerging threat to biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Soil ecosystems, particularly agricultural land, have been recognized as a major sink of microplastics, but the impacts of ...

Spatial–Temporal Characterization of Microplastics in the Surface Water of an Urban Ephemeral River
Rivers are recognized as major unilateral pathways of microplastic transport between terrestrial and marine ecosystems, yet our understanding of their dispersal patterns over space and through time as they migrate from source to sink is limited.

The abundance, distribution and accumulation of plastic debris in Table Bay, Cape Town, South Africa [PDF]
, 2013 Stranded debris and beach litter were examined at two sites in Table Bay, South Africa, repeating a survey made at the same two beaches in 1994. One beach (Milnerton) is a popular recreational beach 12 km from the city centre, whereas the other (Koeberg)
