Most of the plastic waste that enters rivers and the oceans is unaccounted for. Approximately
half of the world's produced plastics are buoyant in water, meaning that processes must take …

Floating marine litter is transported by several mechanisms, including surface waves. In
studies of marine litter transport, the wave‐induced drift is set to be equal to the Stokes drift …

We investigate the sedimentation of chiral particles in viscous fluid flow. We identify helical
ribbons as simple particles with strong translation-rotation coupling whose symmetry …

The dynamics and aggregation of microplastics in marine environments are investigated
through high-fidelity direct numerical simulations with Lagrangian point-particle tracking …

Plastic pollution is a very active research topic for a wide variety of scientific disciplines.
While existing reviews of plastic pollution in the ocean cover the topic from different …

Surface waves and currents are crucial to the mass transfer in the air-sea interaction as they
can drive a variety of dynamical processes. How mass can be transported by surface waves …

The degradation of plastic waste is a major research challenge due to the adverse impacts
of microplastic weathering on the environment and ecosystems. As a major source of plastic …

Rotational effects are commonly neglected when considering the dynamics of freely rising or
settling isotropic particles. Here, we demonstrate that particle rotations play an important role …

Plastic fragmentation alters the size distribution of plastic waste in aquatic habitats, which is
accelerated by mechanical stress and weathering degradation processes. Microplastic …
