Dataset for "Modeling of vertical microplastic transport by rising bubbles"

AI summary Read the abstract

This is the dataset for a modeling study on how rising air bubbles in water transport microplastic particles vertically through the water column. The model helps explain why microplastics can be found distributed throughout ocean depths rather than concentrated only at the surface.

This is the dataset for the paper Lehmann, M., Häusl, F.P. & Gekle, S. Modeling of vertical microplastic transport by rising bubbles. Micropl.&Nanopl. 3, 4 (2023). https://doi.org/10.1186/s43591-023-00053-7

Modeling of vertical microplastic transport by rising bubbles

AI summary Read the abstract

This study modeled the vertical transport of microplastic particles by rising bubbles in the ocean, finding that bubble-mediated transport significantly enhances surface concentration of microplastics and helps explain why surface measurements often show higher particle densities than bulk water predictions suggest.

Sinking microplastics in the water column: simulations in the Mediterranean Sea

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers simulated the vertical dispersion of negatively buoyant microplastics in a realistic circulation model of the Mediterranean Sea, finding that sinking plastics are distributed throughout the water column by turbulence and ocean dynamics. The results help explain why deep Mediterranean sediments accumulate high microplastic concentrations.

Plastic litter in the ocean: Modeling of the vertical transport of micro plastics in the ocean

AI summary Read the abstract

This thesis modeled the vertical transport of microplastics in the ocean, incorporating physical properties such as particle density, size, and biofouling into a transport model to better predict where plastic particles accumulate at depth. The work addresses a key gap in understanding the full three-dimensional distribution of ocean microplastics.
