Impact of Weathering on the Chemical Identification of Microplastics From Usual Packaging Polymers in the Marine Environment [PDF]
, 2021 [Abstract] Most of the plastics produced worldwide are finally disposed into the environment, most of them being one-use plastic packaging. Once released, plastics may undergone degradation through several agents, such as solar radiation, mechanical ...

Plasma Double Layers at the Boundary Between Venus and the Solar Wind [PDF]
, 2020 The solar wind is slowed, deflected, and heated as it encounters Venus’s induced magnetosphere. The importance of kinetic plasma processes to these interactions has not been examined in detail, due to a lack of constraining observations.

On functional equations leading to exact solutions for standing internal waves [PDF]
, 2014 The Dirichlet problem for the wave equation is a classical example of a problem which is ill-posed. Nevertheless, it has been used to model internal waves oscillating harmonically in time, in various situations, standing internal waves amongst them.
