Description

Plastics and the Ocean provides a multidisciplinary look at the growing issue of plastic pollutants in our marine environments. Written by renowned researcher Anthony L. Andrady, this Wiley publication offers a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of how plastics enter the ocean, their physical characterization, and their long-term fate in the ecosystem. This book covers the full spectrum of plastic pollution, from large macroplastics to micro-scale and nanoscale particles. It examines how these pollutants affect the environment and the potential human impacts that occur when plastics reach consumers through seafood. Beyond the scientific data, the text also looks at the human side of the crisis, including discussions on the mismanagement of urban litter and the behavioral factors that contribute to the problem. With a diverse collection of expert perspectives, this work serves as an essential resource for those studying the chemical and environmental consequences of plastic waste. It offers a clear view of the complex relationship between plastic usage, waste management, and ocean health.
