Microplastic Contamination in Aquatic Environments: An Emerging Matter of Environmental Urgency, Second Edition presents 18 chapters, through which a team of global, expert contributors cover a full range of microplastic research. The first chapter describes the general patterns for sources, occurrence, and transport of microplastics to lead off the book. The next batch of chapters cover sampling analytical methods for quantifying microplastics in the environment, followed by chapters addressing the association of chemicals and microbial community with microplastics. A large cluster of chapters focus on the fate and transport of microplastics in wastewater treatment plants, freshwater systems, marine environment, and riverine runoff that connects terrestrial and marine systems. The next few chapters examine bio-transport and effects of microplastics in organisms. The last two chapters are dedicated to two emerging research areas: microplastics in terrestrial settings and nanoplastics in the environment. Outlooks for future research to better understand the situation and further improvements of microplastic research are also covered. In the 6 years since the previous edition published, this fast-moving area has evolved, and the contents of this revision reflect that. There are numerous brand-new chapters, chapters that have been revised and chapters that have been completely refocused. Microplastic Contamination in Aquatic Environments provides an overview of microplastics research. It is guide for researchers to better understand the occurrence of microplastics. Ideally this book provides basic background knowledge of microplastics for Oceanographers, Ecologists and climatologists. Provides an overview of the advantages and disadvantages of different methods for sampling, identification and enumeration of microplastics Contains contributions from world experts with a diverse range of backgrounds, all brought together by a well-known, experienced editor Presents information on microplastics in a unified place, with easy access for the reader New to this edition:  5 brand new chapters (see TOC for full list) A heavier focus on Nano- which was just emerging at publication of the first edition Information on Microplastics as potential carries of resistance genes and the increased threat this poses to the environment
