Microplastic distribution and risk assessment in estuarine systems influenced by traditional villages and artisanal fishery activities
Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are widespread in oceans worldwide, posing a significant threat to aquatic ecosystems. The abundance of these particles in water is related to population density and urban development, functioning as a sink for MPs. However, the pollution levels due to the accumulation o...
