Beach litter deposition at a selection of beaches in the Firth of Forth, Scotland. (2007)
Journal Article
Storrier, K. L., McGlashan, D. J., Bonellie, S., & Velander, K. (2007). Beach litter deposition at a selection of beaches in the Firth of Forth, Scotland. Journal of Coastal Research, 23, 813-822. https://doi.org/10.2112/04-0251.1

Beach litter deposition at a selection of beaches in the Firth of Forth, Scotland, was studied between July 2001 and December 2003. The amount and types of beach litter is relatively consistent among beaches and over time, with an increased abundance...
