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 …
