[HTML][HTML] Biofilm-induced effect on the buoyancy of plastic debris: An experimental study

P Núñez, C Misic, L Cutroneo, M Capello… - Marine Pollution …, 2023 - Elsevier
Plastic floating on the ocean surface represents about 1% of all plastic in the ocean, despite
the buoyancy of most plastics. Biofouling can help to sink debris, which could explain this …
