Thesis
Barrantes, L. I. A. Dynamics of microplastics particles in rivers: experimental settling processes and numerical models of the transport and deposition. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4367345

Microplastic pollution is an environmental problem facing rivers, oceans, and coastlines. Estimations suggest that around 1.15 to 12.7 million tonnes of plastic waste enter the ocean every year from the global riverine system. In the environment, org...

Streamwise Turbulence Modulation in Non-Uniform Open-Channel Clay Suspension Flows (2023)
Journal Article
de Vet, M. G., Fernández, R., Baas, J. H., McCaffrey, W. D., & Dorrell, R. M. (2023). Streamwise Turbulence Modulation in Non-Uniform Open-Channel Clay Suspension Flows. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 128(8), Article e2022JF006781. https://doi.org/10.1029/2022JF006781

Cohesive sediment particles are ubiquitous in environmental flows. The cohesive properties of clay promote the formation of clay flocs and gels and relatively small suspended clay concentrations can enhance or suppress turbulence in a flow. Furthermo...
