Research Abstract
One way to reduce plastic pollution is by detecting main hotspots and reducing their primary sources. More studies are needed to improve our understanding of microplastics' presence and impact on marine systems. Information is required for developing accurate policies, particularly considering the new global agreement to abate plastic pollution. Therefore, this study aims to understand microplastic abundance and characteristics in the Gulf of Thailand. Also, to determine the exposure of zooplankton organisms to microplastic ingestion and determine the exposition risk of their predators.
