Microplastics are widely present worldwide and of great concern to scientists governments due their toxicity ability serve as carriers other environmental pollutants. The abundance microplastics in different water bodies varied significantly, mainly attributed the initial emission concentration pollutants migration process determines abundance, fate, bioavailability water. Previous studies have proved that physicochemical properties themselves important factors affecting migration, but change external conditions is also one main controlling microplastics. In this paper, we focus on effects meteorological (rainfall, light, wind) distribution conclude influence affects inflow microplastics, physical chemical water, dynamics At same time, briefly summarized aquatic organisms, substrates, topography It believed organisms can affect through adsorption vivo transmission plants, feeding behavior, swimming, metabolism animals, extracellular polymers formed by microorganisms, original processes bodies. A full understanding mechanism theoretical significance for law comprehensively assessing pollution load safety risk

Microplastics are ubiquitous in marine environments and have been documented across all ocean compartments, especially surface waters, the world. Even though several studies identify presence of microplastics world’s five oceans, there remains an overt problem large inconsistencies their sampling, extraction, consequent quantification. Despite complexity these methodologies, researchers tried to explore microplastic abundance waters. Using a systematic review approach, dataset was derived from 73 primary undertaken since year 2010 following Oslo Paris Conventions (OSPAR) guidelines monitor harmonise debris. The results showed differences distribution waters oceans. overall concentration oceans ranged between 0.002 62.50 items/m3, with mean 2.76 items/m3. highest found Atlantic (4.98 items/m3), while least observed Southern Ocean (0.04 items/m3). While challenging, this paper recommends harmonisation separation, identification methods globe aid design appropriate mitigation strategies for reducing plastic pollution.

The microplastic pollution in freshwater system is gradually becoming more severe, which has led to increasing attention on the distribution and potential harmful effects of microplastics. Moreover, microplastics may have an impact river ecology pose risks ecosystems. Therefore, it important reveal this process. This study aimed explore correlations between free-living microorganisms urban drinking water source Xiangjiang River by using multivariate statistical analysis. results indicated that abundance (size 50 μm 5 mm) surface sediments ranged from 0.72 18.6 (mean ± SD: 7.32 2.36) items L

Microplastic (MP) pollution, an emerging global change factor, disturbs the ecosystem functioning. Inland wetlands, providing important services, might be sink for MPs. Understanding distribution, source, and fate of MPs in inland wetland ecosystems is a prerequisite developing effective management strategy. Here, different types including river wetland, constructed lake were selected to explore pollution patterns therein. Results showed that abundance soil ranges from 532 4309 items/kg. Transparent, fibers, polyethylene terephthalate most common color, shape, polymer type MPs, respectively. The this study did not significantly remove was one main sinks had accumulated large amounts In addition, MP characteristics cluster analyses aquaculture, agricultural cultivation, domestic waste sources area. occluded particulate organic carbon content related abundance. conclusion, reveals special river-constructed-lake which would help better understand distribution source wetlands have implications subsequent control ecological restoration wetlands.
