Microplastics strengthen nitrogen retention by intensifying nitrogen limitation in mangrove ecosystem sediments
Mangrove wetlands are hotspots of the global nitrogen (N) cycle and important sinks of microplastics (MPs) due to their ecotone location between terrestrial and marine ecosystems. However, the effects of MPs on N cycle processes in mangrove ecosystems are still poorly understood. Thus, the present s...
