Modeling of vertical microplastic transport by rising bubbles

Abstract Microplastic particle concentration at the sea surface is critical for quantifying microplastic transport across the water-air interface. Previous studies suggest that the concentration at the sea surface is enhanced compared to bulk concentration, yet little is known about the detailed mec...
