Cover Story: This study examines the transport of floating macro-plastics in fluvial systems, focusing on the influence of characteristics of the riparian zone, such as the density and arrangement of riverbank vegetation. Using flume experiments and particle tracking velocimetry, the transport velocities of macro-plastics of different sizes and shapes were measured. The results indicate that plastics away from vegetated riverbanks move up to nine times faster than those within. Dense vegetation can reduce transport velocity threefold, sometimes trapping plastics within it. These findings can guide riparian vegetation management to enhance macro-plastic trapping efficiency, considering different flow conditions and river morphologies. View this paper
