چکیده
The contamination of microplastics have been reported in a wide array marine organisms, including bivalve molluscs. This study aimed to investigate the occurrence and abundance bivalves from coastal waters Paciran, Lamongan, East Java, Indonesia. High population anthropogenic activities area may lead its organisms. Microplastics were recovered soft tissues three species wild clams, Gafrarium tumidum, Anadara antiquata, Venerupis philippinarum. In each species, grouped based on their types sizes. extraction was using 30% H2O2, while flotation method NaCl used separate dissolved liquid clam’s tissues. Microplastic ingestion found 99.23% clam samples with average concentration 3.5 ± 2.8 items/individual 3.2 2.52 items/g. V. philippinarum had highest (4.9 2.80 items/g 5.6 3.22 items/individual). all dominated by fibers (80.77%), which 57% them less than 200 µm size. ubiquitous clams Indonesia is serious concerns for food webs human health.

This paper investigates the performance of MERIS reduced resolution data to monitor water quality parameters in the Berau estuary waters, Indonesia. Total Suspended Matter (TSM) and Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) concentration were derived from MERIS data using three different algorithms for coastal waters: standard global processor (MERIS L2), C2R and FUB. The outcomes were compared to in situ measurem...
