Microplastics (MPs) can absorb halogenated organic compounds and transport them into marine anaerobic zones. Microbial reductive dehalogenation is a major process that naturally attenuates organohalide pollutants in anaerobic environments. Here, we aimed to determine the mechanisms through which MPs affect the microbe-mediated marine halogen cycle...

Permeability is a vital parameter for the design and construction of structures involving ocean engineering. Based on the steady-state heat transfer theory and Darcy's law, a novel in-situ test method for permeability in saturated sandy porous media is introduced in this work. This approach aims to obtain permeability through the inversion of the m...

The distribution characteristics and drivers of carbazole (CZ) and polyhalogenated carbazoles are still poorly understood. In this study, 96 samples were collected around the Zhoushan Archipelago, and their distribution characteristics were assessed. The results showed that CZ, 36-CCZ, and 36-BCZ were the top three abundant congeners in most collec...

Horizontal-bottomed power-law sections (HBP sections) are new composite channel sections, which provide more adaptability and flexibility for optimal section design than power-law sections (PL sections). Analytical solutions for wetted perimeters with general exponent parameter m are difficult to obtain, except for several definite sections, such a...
