The Dual Role of Microplastics in Marine Environment: Sink and Vectors of Pollutants

The Dual Role of Microplastics in Marine Environment: Sink and Vectors of Pollutants

This review is a follow-up to a previous review published in Journal of Marine Science and Engineeringon the issues of accumulation, transport, and the effects of microplastics (MPs) in the oceans. The review brings together experimental laboratory, mathematical, and field data on the dual role of M...
