Microplastics movement in the estuary in the "Gironde" estuary
Summary
Researchers released supplementary simulation data — including aerial imagery, tidal convergence/divergence animation, and particle movement scenarios — for a study on microplastic transport dynamics in the Gironde estuary under varying density and sediment conditions.
The files include The zoomed images of the Ortho20cm photographs of surface fronts in the lower and middle estuary. A movie on the convergence/divergence transitions based on the tide, along with the particle position (Blue -convergence zone; Red-divergence zone; Black dots-simulated particles). Two movies illustrate the floating and settling particle movements for the three different scenarios ('reference',' No sediment' and 'uniform density') during the summer season (Black dots indicate the particles).
