HIGHLIGHTS
- What: To address this, over 800 settling experiments were conducted to demonstrate that the dynamics and falling velocities of isotropic (spheres) and anisotropic (square and rectangle plates) macroplastics of different densities (1050 to 2200 kg/m3) are significantly impacted by biofouling. The aim of this study is to characterise and compare the threedimensional settling dynamics of pristine and biofouled isotropic (spheres) and anisotropic (rectangular and square plates) plastics (PS, POM, PTFE), with densities ranging from 1050 to 2200 kg/m³, to describe their settling behaviour and vertical and horizontal velocity distributions.
