Data and code for the publication "Assessing the Behavior of Microplastics in Fluvial Systems: Infiltration and Retention Dynamics in Streambed Sediments" - Part 2(2)

AI summary Read the abstract

This is part two of a dataset from flume experiments studying how microplastics infiltrate and are retained in streambed sediments. The data supports modeling of microplastic transport and deposition in river systems.

Background The dataset contains data on Microplastic transport experiments run in an experimental flume of the University of Bayreuth. It was analysed in the paper by J.P. Boos, F. Dichgans, J.H. Fleckenstein, B.S. Gilfedder and S. Frei, "Assessing the Behavior of Microplastics in Fluvial Systems: Infiltration and Retention Dynamics in Streambed Sediments", currently under review in Water Resources Research Description of the dataset This dataset contains data used for individual particle detection, and is a companion of the main dataset (10.5281/zenodo.10083568). The files need to be downloaded and merged into the given folder structure. Put the folder "1Pix" along with the folder "10Pix" to the folder in "210812/Data-FIS/matlab/2_Experiment/exp/". Disclaimer The data and code are provided as is without any warranty. Funding Funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) -– Project Number 391977956 –- SFB 1357.

Assessing the Behavior of Microplastics in Fluvial Systems: Infiltration and Retention Dynamics in Streambed Sediments

AI summary Read the abstract

Scientists used laboratory river-bed simulations to study how microplastics move from surface water down into streambed sediments. Smaller particles (1 micrometer) penetrated deeper into the sediment than larger ones, and higher water flow pushed more particles downward. This research helps explain how microplastics accumulate in river beds, which serve as both drinking water sources and habitats for aquatic organisms.
