In a new paper, we ask “Can rail reduce British aviation emissions?” doi.org/10.1016/j.trd.2024.1… We find that 44% of UK international flights could have a rail alternative now or in the future, but that only covers 14% of emissions.

Doing good science is 90% finding a science buddy to constantly talk to about the project.

20 yrs after my 1st paper on microplastics, the science is clear microplastics are now widely distributed across the planet, causing harm & contaminating the food we eat the water we drink & the air we breathe. It’s time to change the way we design use and dispose of plastics!
In 2004, @ProfRThompson led the first ever study – published in @ScienceMagazine – to use the term #microplastics to describe the tiny plastic particles being found in the marine environment.

Wie hängt Extremniederschlag mit der Klimaerwärmung zusammen?
Warum gibt es sowohl mehr #Extremregen als auch mehr Dürre?
Hier die wichtigsten Fakten kurz erklärt!

Wie hängen solche Extremniederschläge wie derzeit mit dem Klimawandel zusammen? Kurzer🧵. 1/x

Der #Sommer2024 ist bald Geschichte. Unter Berücksichtigung der Prognosen bis Ende August wird er mit hoher Wahrscheinlichkeit in den Top10 landen. Hätten Sie es gedacht? Falls nicht, zeigt dies, wie sehr sich das Empfinden in den letzten Jahren verschoben hat. /V
Glad to see our work finally published 😀🎉
For those who are interested in the combination of hydrology and microplastics research:

I am looking for a PhD student to join @FluidsICL @imperialcollege to perform plastic transport experiments in our laboratory and develop new theories. Please, help me share: imperial.ac.uk/media/imperia…

📢New #CRC1357 article in @WaterRes_J: Integrated Numerical Modeling to Quantify Transport and Fate of #Microplastics in the Hyporheic Zone by Franz Dichgans @PascalBoos Pouyan Ahamdi @SvenFrei5 & Jan Fleckenstein @UFZ_de @unibt #hydrology sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Do #microplastic & #sediment have the same bed load transport dynamics?
Through 11,000 cases, we show that the saltation dynamics of MP is analogous to sediments
Therefore, can #sedimenttransport serve as a foundation for the study of MP transport?👇

Repeat after me: individual actions will not solve the climate crisis 🙅♀️
Narratives such as "technology will save us" and "it's up to individuals to change their habits" are just as insidious as outright climate denial.
We must keep our attention on where power lies... (1/2)

Science is hard.
Good research makes you feel stupid.
You're inadequate for the task at hand.
How else would it be? You're pushing the boundaries of knowledge.
Get used to it. This process is immensely rewarding.

Huge congratulations 🎉💐 to Hassan Elagami and his successfull PhD defense @unibt. Hassan studied the settling velocity of #microplastics in lab and lakes. With lots of new questions he starts his post doc phase! 👍🤞🤞
