At least 300 Mio t of plastic are produced annually, from which large parts end up in the
environment, where it persists over decades, harms biota and enters the food chain. Yet …

The accumulation of microplastics (MPs) and nanoplastics (NPs) in terrestrial and aquatic
ecosystems has raised concerns because of their adverse effects on ecosystem functions …

Microplastics (MPs) are small (< 5 mm diameter) but have clear implications for the
environment. These artificial particles are found in and pose threats to aquatic systems …

The groundwater table fluctuation (GTF) zone is an important medium for the hydrologic
cycle between unsaturated soil and saturated aquifers, which accelerates the migration …

Microplastic (MP) pollution in terrestrial ecosystems has aroused great concern. However,
little is known regarding the distribution of MPs in Sand Land soils and their associated …

The third edition of this besteller covers the latest advancements in this rapidly growing field.
Focusing on analyses and critical evaluation of the subject, this new edition reviews the …

Biofilm, community of bacteria ubiquitously present in natural environment, may interact with
plastic particles and affect the transport of plastic particles in environment. The significance …

An understanding of the transport and survival of microbial pathogens (pathogens hereafter)
in agricultural settings is needed to assess the risk of pathogen contamination to water and …

Investigations on factors that affect the fate and transport of nanoparticles (NPs) remain
incomplete to date. In the present study, we conducted column experiments using 8 and 52 …

Water-saturated column experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of input
concentration (Co) and sand grain size on the transport and retention of low concentrations …
