Marine debris and associated organic pollutants in surface waters of Chiloe acute accent in the Northern Chilean Patagonia (42 degrees-44 degrees S)
Original language description
We report the occurrence of plastics and associated persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in surface waters from Northern Chilean Patagonia. A total of 200 particles were found during the conducted survey. The highest number of particles found was 0.6 item m(2)13; 3. We found that 53 % of the collected particles corresponded to plastic, with an average of 0.19 +/- 0.18 item m(-3). Microplastics (68 %) were the dominant size found in the area, followed by macroplastics (18 %) and mesoplastics (14 %). Most plastic particles were white (55 %) while others were <10 % each. Black and light blue represented 9 %; red, dark blue, and other colors 7 %; and green 6 %. Fragments were the most frequent shape of plastic debris (38 %), followed by Styrofoam (30 %) and fiber (27 %). Higher PBDE levels were found in the central zone, and those were higher than DDT, PeCB, HCB, and PCB levels. This study is the first report on POP occurrence in marine plastic debris from Chiloe ' Sea in the Northern Chilean Patagonia.
