• The physical oceanography of the transport of floating marine debris (2020, methodology): “The Eulerian framework is also used in a onedimensional setup, for example, to estimate the turbulence-corrected concentration from plastics measurements at sea (Kukulka et al 2012, Enders et al 2015, Poulain et al 2019).”
• (Nano)plastics in the environment - Sources, fates and effects. (2016, background): “Most of these particles endup in our oceans (Lebreton et al., 2012; Sheavly and Register, 2007) and their distribution has been modeled (Enders et al., 2015; Maximenko et al., 2012), with some experimental data supporting these mathematical simulations (Carson et al., 2013; Eriksen et al., 2013b;…”
• All is not lost: deriving a top-down mass budget of plastic at sea (2017, background): “This requires more and better data on the abundance of plastic debris, also for the smaller size classes (e.g. Song et al 2014, Enders et al 2015, Kanhai et al 2017).”
• A Global Perspective on Microplastics (2020, background): “Eriksen et al. (2013) also reported that Lake Erie, which has a greater number of major cities with populations exceeding 100,000 in its immediate watershed than the other Great Lakes, was more polluted than Lake Superior or Huron.”
• The presence of microplastics in the digestive tract of commercial fishes off Pantai Indah Kapuk coast, Jakarta, Indonesia (2019, background): “Some of microplastic polymers have lower density than seawater density (Enders et al. 2015).”
