Microplastics (MPs) are deemed to be a global concern due to their harmful negative effects
on the aquatic environment and human beings. MPs have a significant impact on both fresh …

Microplastics are polymer-based materials with carbon as their main framework. During
degradation, they release greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane …

While microplastic analysis in aquatic systems is rather well standardized, the determination
of microplastics in terrestrial samples has been less explored. Here, we review methods for …

Aggregates, as the basic structural soil units, play a crucial role in maintaining soil functions.
The pollution of soil aggregates by microplastics (MPs) has thus raised significant concerns …

Microplastics (MPs) pollution in soil and groundwater is receiving increased attention, and
relevant concerns are growing in Korea. This review explores recent studies conducted in …

Abstract This Assessment Update by the Environmental Effects Assessment Panel (EEAP) of
the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) considers the interactive effects of …

Microplastics pollution and climate change are primarily investigated in isolation, despite
their joint threat to the environment. Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are emitted during: the …

With the rise in global plastic production and agricultural demand, the released microplastics
(MPs) have increasingly influenced the elemental cycles of soils, leading to notable effects …

The effectiveness of biofertilizers as a cost-effective crop yield enhancer can be
compromised by residual soil pollutants. However, the impact of accumulated …

In the era of climate change, soil and different compartments of the agroecosystem suffer
from different forms of soil and water degradation, which an urgent need for the …
