Pollution of global oceans by plastic litter is one of the most important ecological problems of our time. At the same time, the active sorption of highly toxic chemicals dissolved in water by plastic also poses a threat to the marine environment and its...

Anthropogenic litter (i.e., trash, AL) on beaches has negative ecological and economic impacts. Beach AL is likely moved together with coarse particulate organic matter (CPOM, algae, leaves), but no previous studies have assessed AL and CPOM co-distribut...
