Newswise: Microplastic Pollution Increases Sea Foam Height and Stability
Release date: 16-Jul-2024 11:05 AM EDT
Microplastic Pollution Increases Sea Foam Height and Stability
American Institute of Physics (AIP)

In Physics of Fluids, researchers examine the specific impacts of microplastics on the geophysics of sea foam formation in the critical zone where water meets air in the top layer of the ocean. They devised two simulations for their work — a column filled with sea water injected with air and a laboratory-scale breaking wave channel to test the impacts of wave height on sea foam in the surface microlayer — and tested their effects on sea foam formation, stability, and duration.

Farming under the influence?
University of Georgia

A new University of Georgia study reveals that one in five U.S. farmers report binge drinking when they experience high levels of stress. The paper underlines the link between farmers using alcohol to cope with stress. Farming is a uniquely stressful vocation. Farmers work long hours performing labor-intensive, repetitive and often dangerous tasks.
