However, no official methodology exists to investigate their relatively short, rich in organic matter beaches, and the knowledge of pollution of lagoons is scarce worldwide. This study aimed to develop a methodology suitable for large micro (2–5 mm), meso (5–25 mm), and macro-litter (>25 mm) monitoring at sandy inner-coastal waters that would provide comparable results to the intensively used OSPAR 100 m method. The method proposed in this study is based on two 40 m2 rectangular polygons placed on the tidal accumulation zone for macro-litter enumeration and two 1 m2 squares for micro- and meso-litter. 2023-08-07T04:49:37Z 2023-08-07T04:49:37Z 2023 Book https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00267-022-01755-z https://dlib.phenikaa-uni.edu.vn/handle/PNK/8717 en application/pdf Springer
