Beskrivning

Micro(nano)plastics in the Aquatic Environment: Fate, Toxicology, and Management, Volume Eleven explores a wide breadth of chapters, reflecting the experiences of groups of researchers from different countries on essential aspects of the context of plastic pollution. The book provides insights in chapters Plastic pollution in the aquatic ecosystem: an emerging threat and its mechanisms, Behavior of micro(nano)plastics in the aquatic environment and influencing factors, Analysis and distribution characteristics of micro(nano)plastics in the water environment, Interactions between microplastics and primary producers in aquatic ecosystems, Release of micro(nano)plastics from face masks into the marine environment: measurements and ecotoxicity, and more.

Other chapters cover The ecology of microbial communities on microplastics, Metals on microplastics and their environmental consequences in freshwater ecosystems, Effect of biofilm attachment on the fate of microplastics in the aquatic environment, Micro(nano)plastic pollution in the global mangrove ecosystem: a comprehensive review on the sources, fates, and effects, Effects of microplastics on amphibian performance and survival: current knowledge and research gaps, Microplastics in fishes: Occurrence, impacts, and future perspectives, and much more.



  • Covers a wide breadth of evidence about the fate, ecotoxicology, and management of micro(nano)plastics
  • Includes contributions from an international board of authors
  • Provides a comprehensive set of reviews

Mer information

Dr. Malafaia (Guilherme) is a Department of Biological Sciences Professor at Goiano Federal Institute of Education, Science, and Technology (Goiás State, Brazil). He received a bachelor's and master's degree from the Federal University of Ouro Preto (Brazil) and a doctorate from the Federal University of Goiás (Brazil). Atualmente, têm sete estágio de pós-doutorado em universidades do Brasil, Bangladesh, Egito e India, all related to Environmental and Biological Sciences. He coordinates the Laboratory of Toxicology Applied to the Environment, focusing on the ecotoxicological assessment of emerging pollutants, including micro(nano)plastics, nanomaterials, nanofibers, pesticides, drug residues, etc. The ongoing research projects in his lab use different animal species as model systems (e.g., mice, zebrafish, guppy, Amazon turtle, tadpole, Japanese quails, mosquito larvae, earthworms, and dragonfly larvae, in addition to aquatic and native plants from Brazilian Cerrado). He has published over 315 journal papers and several books. In addition, he has served as a reviewer for more than 170 international journals. He is an advisor for scientific initiation (undergraduate students), master's, doctorate, and post-doctoral internships. He is part of the Editorial Board of renowned international journals, such as the Journal of Hazardous Materials, Science of The Total Environment, Aquatic Toxicology, Journal of Hazardous Materials Advances, Environmental Sciences Europe, Water Emerging Contaminants & Nanoplastics, Frontiers in Marine Science, Frontiers in Physiology, among others.
