This perspective will focus for the first time on the occurrence and potential transport pathways of MPs within the MENA region. The delivery mechanism of MPs and characteristics of ocean currents and air patterns are discussed in detail within the Arabian Gulf -Gulf of Oman complex, the Red Sea-Gulf of Aden complex, the southern Arabian margin, and non-MENA region to the south, as well as the Mediterranean Sea respectively. Significant variable dissemination and seasonal delivery across different locations in the MENA regions are revealed from this analysis. The review provides guidance for researchers and government authorities in conducting MPs research and proposing actionable measures to mitigate risks associated with chemical and biological contamination.

这一观点将首次关注 MP 在 MENA 地区内的出现和潜在运输途径。在阿拉伯湾-阿曼湾复合体、红海-亚丁湾复合体、阿拉伯南部边缘和南部的非中东和北非地区以及地中海分别详细讨论了 MPS 的输送机制以及洋流和空气模式的特征。该分析揭示了中东和北非地区不同地点的显著可变传播和季节付。该审查为研究人员和政府机构进行 MP 研究和提出可行措施以减轻与化学和生物污染相关的风险提供了指导。
