Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
In this paper, we made use of the similarity between the movement of buoy and plastic litter in the ocean and took the motion track of buoy as that of plastic litter. By means of statistical regression, we simulated the motion track of buoy and gained the approximate motion track of plastic litter. Then we considered the degradation and movement of plastic litter as a whole. With the help of the variables of mass, size and location, we got the density, extent and distribution of plastic litter. As times goes by, when the density of plastic litter reaches a certain value, debris gyre will come into being. And then we discussed the influence of plastic litter on marine ecosystem, we combined fuzzy vector and Markov transfer matrix together, thus gaining the different values of the influence of plastic litter on marine ecosystem at different moments.
