The Malvern Panalytical Spraytec uses laser diffraction for measuring the spray droplet size and spray particles. This is done by measuring the light intensity scattered as a laser beam passes through ...

Rather than being a source, the ocean appears to be a sink, in which 15 percent of all airborne microplastics are deposited.

How tiny plastic particles enter the atmosphere is an important question, as airborne microplastics are a potential health threat. Using a global chemical transport model, researchers have provided ...

“Fabric and upholstered furniture are particularly susceptible to snow spray residue, as the porous nature of fabric can trap particles, making it challenging to remove,” says Deeble.

Emily Mason, a heliophysicist at San Diego-based research firm Predictive Science, and her colleagues observed coronal loops ...

As scientists began to investigate what had caused the drop in land fertility, they discovered that those floodwaters carried with them minerals, nutrients and crucially, clay particles from the ...
