Dispersion, accumulation, and the ultimate fate of microplastics in deep-marine environments: a review and future directions
An estimated 8.3 billion tons of non-biodegradable plastic has been produced over the last
65 years. Much of this is not recycled and is disposed into the natural environment, has a …

Sediment transfer and deposition in slope channels: Deciphering the record of enigmatic deep-sea processes from outcrop
The processes within deep-sea sediment-routing systems are difficult to directly monitor.
Therefore, we rely on other means to decipher the sequence and relative magnitude of the …
