Transforming encounters: A review of the drivers and mechanisms of macrofaunal plastic fragmentation in the environment
Plastic has infiltrated every ecosystem on the planet, making encounters between this anthropogenic pollutant and fauna inevitable. Abiotic environmental breakdown involving light, oxygen, temperature and mechanical forces is well-characterized, while biotic degradation mechanisms are less well-unde...
