River-groundwater Interaction and Recharge Effects on Microplastics Contamination of Groundwater in Confined Alluvial Aquifers: Original dataset

AI summary Read the abstract

This is a duplicate dataset entry for the river-groundwater microplastic contamination study, providing the same raw data on microplastic analysis in confined alluvial aquifer samples.

Study Type Environmental

The dataset includes all the microplastics analysed for the manuscript "River–Groundwater Interaction and Recharge Effects on Microplastics Contamination of Groundwater in Confined Alluvial Aquifers" by Edoardo Severini, Laura Ducci, Alessandra Sutti, Stuart Robottom, Sandro Sutti and Fulvio Celico (https://doi.org/10.3390/w14121913). The dataset "MP (ctrl and sample).txt" contains the raw data of environmental and ctrl samples. The values of the ctrl samples were used to analyse the statistical differences between ctrl and environmental samples and subsequently used to define the identification parameters (threshold) for the microplastics identification in surface water and groundwater, contained in the file "MP (after ctrl sample).txt".

River-groundwater Interaction and Recharge Effects on Microplastics Contamination of Groundwater in Confined Alluvial Aquifers: Original dataset

AI summary Read the abstract

This is a dataset entry supporting a study on microplastic contamination in confined alluvial groundwater aquifers, covering the role of river-groundwater interaction in transporting microplastics into subsurface water. Raw analysis data from environmental and control samples are provided. It is a supporting dataset rather than a full research paper.

Fate of Microplastics in Deep Gravel Riverbeds: Evidence for Direct Transfer from River Water to Groundwater

AI summary Read the abstract

Researchers tracked microplastic particles vertically through gravel riverbeds using depth-profile sampling, finding that MPs move directly from river water into subsurface gravel sediments and onward toward groundwater, documenting a pathway for plastic particles to enter drinking water aquifers.
