🌍 What’s further interesting in this study is that the deposited fragments can also then be thought of as a secondary (smaller) porosity of our system. This is, in my view, much more representative of the porosity of natural systems.
I had the pleasure to publish my last PhD paper entitled “Role of Ripening in the Deposition of Fragments: The Case of Micro- and Nanoplastics”, with Nolwenn Delouche, Herve Tabuteau and @GigaultJulien .

Here is a summary :
🔺 In a porous media particles can interact with each other - even in repulsive conditions. So, ripening is an underlooked reason your particles are deposited, compared to more commonly considered processes, such as attachment, straining, blocking…
🌊 @PradelAlice's lab-grown sea ice method is transforming environmental research! 🧊 By tracking micro- & nanoplastic particles in the ice, her work in the group of @DeniseMitrano@usys_ethzh offers vital insights into plastic pollution dynamics. https://t.co/wVo3j87QLk
A team of scientists from the @MOSAiCArctic expedition have come to the ESRF to study the microstructure of Arctic sea ice🧊, to understand the changes it undergoes due to global warming.

We look forward to seeing you there!
Le Swiss Polar Class Festival aura lieu le samedi 2 Décembre à Sion, Suisse! J'y serai pour discuter de ce qui rend la banquise si spéciale !! Viens en apprendre plus sur les régions froides que l'on aime tant 🐋 #Arctic#Polar#Earth@SwissPolar https://t.co/AkiFLKjYNM
There are absolutely no limits to which disciplines should apply! We welcome all proposals that convince both by their relevance and originality.

I am looking to bring on a #funded PhD student for fall 2024. If you know any talented undergrads or master's students interested in equitable #climate adaptation, disaster #resilience, climate mobility, and #interdisciplinary science, please send them my way! @AcademicChatter
We tend to drown in the complexity & our inability to bend the global curve of fossil-fuel emissions. Here is the obvious 1st step to succeed - stop subsidizing oil, gas & coal. 7 trillion USD. Almost 10% of the global economy… Let, at least, clean energy compete on fair terms.
Il y a 48h, une étude scientifique publiée annonçait que la 6ème limite planétaire sur 9 était désormais officiellement dépassée... et ce fut un vrai raz de marée médiatique !
Non bien sûr, comme d'habitude, tout le monde s'en fout.
I managed to connect to Eduroam on a new computer in only 1⃣ attempt ! I am glowing with happiness 😄
Just then my boyfriend texts me to tell say that he just met Chris Sharma.... To each their own moments of joy #psaaa
