Source data for microplastic mobility in groundwater aquifers
Summary
This is a data repository entry containing source code and data for a study on how microplastic particles move through groundwater aquifers, using a surface-energy model to calculate interactions between microplastics and quartz sand grains. Understanding microplastic transport through soil and groundwater is critical for assessing whether these particles can reach drinking water supplies. The data itself (not a full paper) supports research into a largely unstudied contamination pathway.
This repository contains the source data and custom code used to compute the XDLVO surface element integrals between microplastics and quartz sand based on the superellipsoid model in this study. This work was also supported by the "Ocean Decade" China Action International Cooperation Seed Fund Project (No. GHZZ3702840002024020000027).

Source data for microplastic mobility in groundwater aquifers
This is a duplicate data repository entry for the same groundwater microplastic mobility study as ID 1716, containing source code and surface-energy interaction calculations for microplastics in aquifer sand. Duplicate entry; the underlying research addresses microplastic movement through groundwater—an important but underexplored pathway to drinking water.
Supplementary data for microplastic mobility in groundwater aquifers
This research provides data and computer models to understand how tiny plastic particles move through underground water sources that supply drinking water. The study helps scientists predict where microplastics might end up in groundwater systems. This matters because microplastics in drinking water could potentially affect human health, so understanding how they spread underground helps protect water supplies.
Supplementary data for microplastic mobility in groundwater aquifers
This study provides data and computer models to understand how tiny plastic particles (microplastics) move through underground water sources that supply our drinking water. The research helps scientists predict where these plastic particles will end up in groundwater systems. This matters because microplastics are increasingly found in drinking water, and understanding their movement helps us better protect water supplies and assess potential health risks.
Physics-based and data-driven strategies for simulating colloid behavior in fractured aquifer systems
This thesis developed physics-based and data-driven models for simulating how colloids — particles in the microplastic size range — move through fractured aquifer systems. Understanding subsurface transport of small particles is important for predicting how microplastics might move through groundwater.
Data and code for the publication "Assessing the Behavior of Microplastics in Fluvial Systems: Infiltration and Retention Dynamics in Streambed Sediments" - Part 1(2)
This dataset supports research on how microplastics move through streambed sediments in experimental flume conditions, measuring infiltration and retention dynamics. Understanding microplastic trapping in riverbeds is important for predicting their long-term fate in freshwater ecosystems.
