title: Microplastics in Beach Sediments of the Sea of Azov: Morphological and Morphometric Features
abstract: This paper aims at assessment of microplastics concentrations on the beaches of the Sea of Azov and research of morphological features, size of particles, level and ways of degradation (or destruction) of microplastics. During the study, 126 samples of beach deposits were taken at 14 points of the beaches of the Sea of Azov and Kerch Strait. The samples were processed using the modified method NOAA.
