Research interests:
My main interest is marine macro and micro litter. We study marine litter classification and its spatial-temporal distribution on Israeli rivers, beaches, coastal and open sea waters. We are interested in better understanding the sources of litter, its behavior both in the sea and on the shore, and the forces affecting marine litter.
My other research interest is marine pollution by heavy metals and nutrients.
