Persistency and Surface Convergence Evidenced by Two Maker Buoys in the Great Pacific Garbage Patch
The accumulation of plastic debris on land and coastlines and in waterways and garbage patches is one of the greatest ecological concerns of the 21st century. In that context, the sources and pathways of plastic marine debris (PMD) have been increasingly studied in the past ten years. The purpose of...
