Summary

Researchers used computational hydrodynamic modeling to simulate how light microplastics discharged from the Ipanema and Icaraí submarine outfalls disperse across Guanabara Bay and its adjacent coastal zone, mapping transport pathways and accumulation zones under variable oceanographic conditions.

O objetivo central desse estudo foi analisar a dispersão de microplásticos leves oriundos de emissários submarinos na Baía de Guanabara (BG) e zona costeira adjacente por meio de modelagem computacion...
