65marcos/PDKP-v1.0.0---Initial-Release: PDKP v1.0.0 - Initial Release

Summary

Scientists built a computer model (a set of software tools, not a lab experiment) that predicts how quickly microplastics break down in farm soil, based on factors like temperature. This matters because microplastics in soil can end up in the crops we eat, so better predictions of how long they stick around could help researchers and farmers figure out where contamination risks are highest. Note that this release is the modeling tool itself, tested against existing published data—it doesn't report new findings about health effects.

PDKP v1.0.0 Process-Based Kinetic Model for Microplastic Degradation in Agricultural Soils. Features Core kinetic model with Arrhenius temperature correction Lambda (λ) parameter calibration via NLS and MLE Monte Carlo uncertainty propagation Experimental validation against 6 literature datasets Fragmentation modeling via Weibull distribution Citation If you use this software, please cite: [seu artigo quando publicado]
