Stochasticity and Intermittency of Microplastic Movements in Open Channel Flows
Environmental Science & Technology
2026
Summary
Researchers characterized the stochastic, intermittent motion of microplastics in open channel flows, finding that erratic stop-and-go transport behavior arises from the interplay between turbulent fluid drag and particle settling, complicating predictions of microplastic fate in riverine and coastal systems.
