  abstract = {{P}lastic debris has become an acute marine pollution concern worldwide in modern times. {I}ndonesia is particularly impacted because of its high population density, heavy rainfall rate and numerous coastlines. {A} {L}agrangian analysis was performed to simulate the fate of fictive marine debris drifting along surface currents, including tides and {S}tokes drift. {T}he fictive particles were released according to the discharge rate of 21 {I}ndonesian rivers and advected over 4 years. {M}ost of the particles were stranded along {I}ndonesian coasts (60%), before 6 months had elapsed (84%) and within a range of 1000 km (76%). {T}he time variability exhibited two seasonal peaks, one centered on {J}anuary-{F}ebruary and one on {J}une-{J}uly, consistent with in situ observations. {H}owever, the results underline the complexity of performing direct comparisons between in situ observations and numerical simulations for stranded waste due to limited measurements and the heterogeneity of field methods and protocols.},
