This review delves into the intricate world of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) and
their bioaccumulation in marine organisms. It explores how physicochemical attributes of …

This study provides an overview of the evaluation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs) in the coastal regions of Santos Basin, located in Brazil's Southeast region, the …

Filter-feeder organisms such as oyster and mussels are exposed to particles like
microplastics (MPs). Although widely used to monitor MPs contamination, little is known …

Pyrethroids (PYR) and UV filters (UVF) were investigated in tissues of paired mother-fetus
dolphins from Brazilian coast in order to investigate the possibility of maternal transfer of …

In the present study, levels of booster biocides (diuron, Irgarol, chlorothalonil, dichlofluanid
and DCOIT), butyltin compounds (TBT, DBT and MBT) and antifouling paint particles (APPs) …

Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitously found in environmental matrices, particularly affecting
aquatic systems. While several marine species have been widely used to assess MP …

Ten global harbours were assessed for sediment quality by quantifying the magnitude of
anthropogenic change and ecological risk. Anthropogenic change (enrichment) was high for …

The contamination of mangroves by anthropogenic litter has increased in recent decades.
Notably, Brazil occupies a prominent status within Latin America, boasting the second …

Ocean literacy (OL) is defined as the understanding of the ocean's influence on human
beings and vice versa. It aims to improve knowledge on marine environments, enabling …

Hadal trenches are considered to act as depocenters for organic material, although
pathways for the material transport and deposition rates are poorly constrained. Here we …
