How are microplastics incorporated in fluvial sedimentary structures (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

It's predicted there will be ~1.3 billion-tonnes of microplastics (MPs) in the environment by 2040, with rivers transporting 95% into the ocean; this is much higher than previously thought. MPs pose a threat to aquatic ecosystems and could become par... Read More about How are microplastics incorporated in fluvial sedimentary structures.

GIS-based water budget framework for assessing regional scale spatio-temporal variation and the impact of climate change on groundwater recharge over the past 100 years (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Knowledge of groundwater recharge (GWR) and its distribution are necessary for sustainable groundwater resources management. However, quantifying GWR remains particularly challenging as this parameter cannot be measured directly. At the regional scal...
