Abstract Mass production, consumption, and disposal of plastics pollute the freshwater environment. Microplastics are small plastic particles less than 5mm in diameter that enter the ecosystem as a result of the breakdown of large plastic particles or the direct release of small plastic particles by climate and human activities.

Abstract The Tomlinson Pollution Load Index (PLI) is calculated as the chemical product concentrations that are measured in marine mussels. It can be used as an index of bioavailability of pollutants for mussels in coastal waters. For the computations, published data from ‘Mussel-Watch’ programs have been used.

The Mediterranean coastal area of the Nile Delta is socio-economically vital, however, it is under significant environmental stress due to pollution from land-based activities. The study investigates the temporal variations of trace metals to assess the development of the anthropogenic pollution status in the coastal sediments.

A greenhouse experiment was conducted during 2010-2011. A complete randomized blocks design was used including seven treatment levels of sludge(tons per hectare), i.e., 0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, and "30+ treated wastewater", in four replications. Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L var longifolia) was chosen as a test plant.

As indices directly indicate land-based pollutant load contributions to public water pollution, pollutant load per capita flowing into the water body (PLCwb) for the drainage areas of inner city rivers in Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture, Japan, was analyzed. It was reaffirmed that PLCwb was different by the drainage area.

The investigation along the Coromandel coastline of South-east India focused on assessing microplastics abundance using Simpson's diversity index (DIMP), Degradation-carbonyl index (DgCIMP), Pollution load index (PLIMP) and Ecological risk fraction (RfMP).

A study on the characterization of sediment quality was conducted along a stretch of the Benin River, Niger Delta, Nigeria, between June and December, 2011 to evaluate the impact of anthropogenic activities. Five stations were selected from Ajimele to Koko for the investigation. Samples were analysed using standard methods.

Vehicular traffic occupies a significant place among the sources of air pollution, due to population and urban growth that has led to an excessive increase in the vehicle fleet worldwide, and in Costa Rica as well. Vehicle emissions generate greenhouse gases (GHGs), particulate matter (PM), and heavy metals (HMs), due to combustion products from fossil-

The increasing rate of microplastic (MP) pollution in the aquatic environment poses an escalating threat to marine ecosystems and several health concerns to humans. Ocean and Sea MP pollution has been a grave concern in recent decades, and rivers are considered one of the main channels that carry MP to the sea. Here, we investigated the MP abundance in

Comparative assessment of pollution by metals (Pb, Cu, Cd, Fe, and As) was performed for the first time for the bays and inlets of the Murmansk coast of the Barents Sea; the international Metal Pollution Index (MPI) was applied for the fucoids. The background pollution was assessed for each studied element by MPI in the fucoids taking into account the ...
