Marine Litter Observed by Tidal Circulation at Phi Phi Islands, Andaman Sea

Article Preview

Abstract:

Background: Saphan Hin is well known park located in the southern east coast of Phuket. Marine litter, especially light and floatable litter such as plastic, is known to be the cause of death in marine animals. Therefore, prediction of light floatable marine litter will greatly help to understand behavior of marine litter transportation at Saphan Hin and leads to proper waste management in vulnerable areas.
