Microplastic Contamination of Sediment and Water Column in the Seine River Estuary

Résumé

Nowadays, microplastic (MPs) pollution is well documented in marine ecosystems since the first publication alarming about marine plastic pollution in 1972 [Carpenter, E.J., Smith, K.L.: Plastics on the Sargasso sea surface. Science 175, 1240–1241 (1972)]. Similarly, continental contamination is more and more investigated. More recently, interest for estuarine systems is growing. Estuaries are considered as a suspected predominant pathway for microplastic pollution from continent to oceans. The specific conditions of estuaries, like salinity gradient, tides and hydrodynamics, could affect the repartition, settling and transfer of microplastics to marine systems.
