Microplastic intrusion into the zooplankton, the base of the marine food chain: Evidence from the Arabian Sea, Indian Ocean
Goswami, P.; Selvakumar, Narasimman; Verma, Pankaj; Saha, M.; Suneel, V.; Vinithkumar, N.V.; Dharani, G.; Rathore, Chayanika; Nayak, Jibananand (Elsevier, 2023)Microplastics (MPs) are ubiquitous in the marine environment, yet information regarding their occurrence in the food web is limited.We investigated the concentration and composition of MPs in water and diverse zooplankton ... -
Microplastics in the sediments along the eastern Arabian Sea shelf: Distribution, governing factors and risk assessment
Gupta, Priyansha; Saha, M.; Suneel, V.; Rathore, Chayanika; Chndrasekhararao, A.V.; Gupta, G.V.M.; Junaid, C.K. (Elsevier, 2024)Despite the omnipresence of microplastics (MPs), the studies around the western continental shelf of Indian Ocean (Eastern Arabian Sea-EAS) are uncovered and understudied. Thus, the present study was focused to understand ... -
Risk assessments of microplastics accumulated in estuarine sediments at Cuddalore, Tamil Nadu, southeast coast of India
Nithin, Ajith; Sundaramanickam, A.; Saha, M.; Hassanshahian, M.; Thangaraj, M.; Rathore, Chayanika (Springer, 2023)In this study, the abundance of microplastics (MPs) in the Uppanar and Gadilam estuaries in Cuddalore, on the southeast coast of India, is reported. In the estuarine sediments, MP abundance ranged from 36.3 ± 3.39 to ... -
The consequences of reduced anthropogenic activities during the COVID-19 pandemic on microplastic abundance in a tropical estuarine region: Goa, India
Gupta, Priyansha; Saha, M.; Suneel, V.; Rathore, Chayanika; Ray, D.; Naik, Akshata (Elsevier, 2024)Plastic pollution is pervasive, as it has infiltrated every corner of the planet and the COVID-19 pandemic has caused a depletion in the production, consumption, and disposal of plastics. To find out the effect of the ... -
Unraveling the land-based discharge of microplastics from sewers to oceans - A comprehensive study and risk assessment in wastewaters of Goa, India
Rathore, Chayanika; Saha, Mahua; DeBoer, J.; Desai, Aniket; Gupta, Priyansha; Naik, Akshata; Subha, H.Y. (Elsevier, 2024)Owing to their pervasive dispersion in the environment and their potential ramifications on both marine life and human health, microplastics (MPs) are of increasing concern. However, there is still a lack of research on ...
