Occurrence of Microplastics (MPs) in Antarctica and Its Impact on the Health of Organisms

2023-10-06

Abstract excerpt

Antarctica and its surrounding environment are considered untouched and thought that it is free from microplastics (MPs) pollution. However, recent studies and science projects have reported MPs in both water and sediment in the South Polar Regions. The reports state that the MP’s pollution occurs in this region due to fishing, tourism, and research activities by the nearby countries and nature's circulation...
