摘要
Micro-and nano-plastics,defined as plastic particles measuring≤5 mm,represent a class of contaminants of emerging concern.These particles are ubiquitous in aquatic environments,posing significant threats to both freshwater and marine organisms.The accumulation of micro-and nanoplastics in aquatic biota can lead to physical harm and chemical hazards,as these particles can serve as vectors for transporting toxic substances.As the research community strives to understand the transport and fate of micro-and nano-plastics,as well as their ecotoxicological implications,the scope of research questions continues to broaden.In response to these developments,the Journal of Oceanology and Limnology has recently launched a special issue entitled“Micro-and nano-plastics:an emerging contaminant in marine and freshwater ecosystems.”
