The power of sunlight: Predicting global lake pollution reduction through photochemistry
Global distribution of 3CDOM* concentrations in lakes. Credit: Eco Environment and Health The research investigates how natural photochemical reactions can help break down emerging pollutants in freshwater systems, with a particular focus on clofibric acid and diclofenac. This study focuses on the contrasting effects of triplet sensitization and direct photolysis and provides new insights into how these processes can reduce…

Researchers from the University of Adelaide have developed a new theoretical model that predicts the distances ocean waves will travel to break up sea ice. Monitoring ocean wave propagation is important for…
