Marine anthropogenic litter on British beaches: A 10-year nationwide assessment using citizen science data
Abstract Growing evidence suggests that anthropogenic litter, particularly plastic, represents a highly pervasive and persistent threat to global marine ecosystems. Multinational research is progressing to characterise its sources, distribution and...

Smartstones: A small 9-axis sensor implanted in stones to track their movements
Abstract The movement of stones is important in a variety of disciplines such as geomorphology or hydraulic engineering. Plenty of different sensors, visual, active or passive tracers exist to capture movements in various ways. However, none of them ...

Total elemental composition of soils in Sub-Saharan Africa and relationship with soil forming factors
Abstract A thorough understanding of the variation in total soil element concentrations is important especially in the Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) soil contexts for agricultural and environmental management at large scale. Fingerprinting of soil...

XRF measurements of tin, copper and zinc in antifouling paints coated on leisure boats
Abstract Tributyltin (TBT) and other organotin compounds have been restricted for use on leisure boats since 1989 in the EU. Nonetheless, release of TBT is observed from leisure boats during hull maintenance work, such as pressure hosing. In this...

Multidisciplinary constraints of hydrothermal explosions based on the 2013 Gengissig lake events, Kverkfjöll volcano, Iceland
Abstract Hydrothermal explosions frequently occur in geothermal areas showing various mechanisms and energies of explosivity. Their deposits, though generally hardly recognised or badly preserved, provide important insights to quantify the dynamics...

Modelling road dust emission abatement measures using the NORTRIP model: Vehicle speed and studded tyre reduction
Abstract Road dust emissions in Nordic countries still remain a significant contributor to PM10 concentrations mainly due to the use of studded tyres. A number of measures have been introduced in these countries in order to reduce road dust...

Velocity-correction schemes for the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations in general coordinate systems
Abstract This paper presents methods of including coordinate transformations into the solution of the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations using the velocity-correction scheme, which is commonly used in the numerical solution of unsteady...

New sedimentological, structural and paleo-thermicity data in the Boucheville Basin (eastern North Pyrenean Zone, France)
Abstract The Boucheville Basin is one of the easternmost Mesozoic basins of the North Pyrenean Zone (NPZ) that was opened during the Albian extension between the Iberian and European plates. During the extension, a HT/LP metamorphism event affected...

Morphological and lithodynamic conditions in the marine coastal zone of the Vistula Spit (Gulf of Gdańsk, Baltic Sea)**This transborder research was inspired by the Laboratory of Coastal Systems, Atlantic Department of the P. P. Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, Russian Academy of Sciences, by the Department of Marine Geology, Institute of Oceanography, University of Gdańsk and by the system project ‘InnoDoktorant – Scholarships for Ph.D. students, 1st edition’, co-financed by the European Union within the framework of the European Social Fund. The authors are particularly indebted to Dr B. V. Chubarenko, Dr V. L. Boldyrev, Dr V. A. Chechko, D. A. Domnin, V. Y. Kurchenko and K. V. Karmanov. The data of the winds speed and directions was supplied by the ARMAAG Foundation.
