Microplastics in the Marine Environment: A Review of Their Sources, Formation, Fate, and Ecotoxicological Impact
Global plastic production is on the rise, and improper plastic management leads to the disposal of plastic in the environment, wherein it enters the environment, after degradation, as microplastics (size < 5 mm) and nanoplastics (size < 1 μm). The most common sink for the microplastics is the...
