Microplastics Across Ecosystems: Multidisciplinary Approaches to Sources, Sinks and Health Sustainable Solutions

Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Microplastics pose a complex and pervasive environmental threat, requiring a unified approach that transcends traditional disciplines. This topic seeks contributions that integrate diverse areas of knowledge from environmental science, oceanography, toxicology, economics, and social sciences to elucidate the sources, transport, and ultimate fate of microplastics, as well as their effects on our ecosystems and biota. By fostering a multidisciplinary platform, we encourage collaboration among scientists to develop innovative and sustainable solutions. We invite authors to share their research and perspectives, so that together we can build a robust knowledge base that can shed light on this growing global crisis.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
