Abstract: Most studies on microplastics (MPs) in corals have relied on aquarium experiments, with limited eld-based data available for many reef regions. This highlights a gap in in situ studies of microplastics in keystone corals, particularly along the tropical southwest Atlantic coast. Therefore, establishing a database on microplastics in corals is...
