It focuses on the latest research and methodologies for identifying and mitigating the adverse effects of microplastics on aquatic life and ecosystem health. The chapters cover a wide range of topics including the release of microplastics into freshwater sources, their transport mechanisms, their ultimate fate, and their impacts on both flora and fauna. Expert contributors provide detailed insights into the detection strategies and pretreatment methodologies necessary for accurate assessment. The book also explores the entry of microplastics into humans through freshwater sources and their potential health impacts. Additionally, it addresses global distribution patterns and interactions between microplastics and other pollutants. This volume is an essential resource for scientists, policymakers, and environmental specialists dedicated to addressing the pressing issue of microplastic pollution. It provides a thorough understanding of the problem and offers practical solutions to preserve the integrity of freshwater ecosystems for future generations. 606 $aMicroplastics$xEnvironmental aspects 606 $aMicroplastics 606 $aFreshwater ecology 606 $aMarine ecology 606 $aEcology 606 $aOceanography 615 0$aMicroplastics$xEnvironmental aspects. 615 0$aMicroplastics. 615 0$aFreshwater ecology. 615 0$aMarine ecology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aOceanography. 676 $a577.6 676 $a577.7 702 $aBala$b Kiran 702 $aNogueira$b Regina 702 $aDarbha$b Gopala Krishna 702 $aWeichgrebe$b Dirk 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911022456303321 996 $aOccurrence, detection, and fate of microplastics in freshwater ecosystems$94458929 997 $aUNINA
