Physical transport properties of marine microplastic pollution
Biogeosciences Discussions This discussion paper is/has been under review for the journal Biogeosciences (BG). Please refer to the corresponding final paper in BG if available. Abstract Given the complexity of quantitative collection, knowledge of the distribution of mi-croplastic pollution in many regions of the world ocean is patchy, both spatially and temporally, especially for the subsurfac...
متن کاملSusceptibility of Sardinella lemuru to emerging marine microplastic pollution
Marine microplastics are emerging pollutants that impact across levels of marine food chain at a global scale. Its presence was determined on Sardinella lemuru, a commercial pelagic fish that are harvested generally in the Northern Mindanao, consumed locally, and exported worldwide as bottled or canned sardine products. The stomach contents of 600 sardines were examined visually under...
متن کاملOptimal Locations and the Mass Transport Problem
The Monge-Kantorovich mass transport problem is to find the transport plan that minimizes the cost (1). This was formulated by Kantorovich in the 1940's, generalizing Monge's format in 1781. Monge's original formulation of the problem assumes that and asks for BßC œ lBCl a b the existence of a mass-preserving map from the support, Spt ,of 0 a b . . to Spt that minimizes a b / the cost ( a b a ...
متن کاملArtificial Neural Network Modeling for the Management of Oil Slick Transport in the Marine Environments
Due to an increase in demand of petroleum products which are transported by vessels or exported by pipelines, oil spill management becomes a controversial issue in coastal environment safety as well as making serious financial problems. After spilling oil in the water body, oil spreads as a thin layer on the water surface. Currents, waves and wind are the main causes of oil slick transport. The...
