The Water and Environment Journal is inviting submissions for a special issue focused on micro and nanoplastics and the Plastisphere in aquatic environments. This call for papers aims to address the sources, impacts, and sustainable mitigation strategies related to these pollutants.
Micro and nanoplastics have emerged as significant environmental contaminants, posing risks to aquatic ecosystems and human health. The Plastisphere, a term used to describe the microbial communities that form on plastic debris in water, plays a crucial role in understanding the interactions between plastics and aquatic organisms.
Researchers are encouraged to submit original research articles, reviews, and case studies that explore various aspects of micro and nanoplastics, including their origins, distribution, ecological effects, and potential solutions for reducing their presence in aquatic environments. The journal seeks to foster a comprehensive understanding of these issues to inform policy and promote sustainable practices.
