In marine engineering, polymer layers are anti-seepage barrier materials. The mechanical interaction between marine sand and polymer layer significantly affects overall structural stability. In this study, direct shear tests at different temperatures in the marine environment are simulated to evaluate the shear behavior of marine sand and polymer layer interface, and a database is developed. Based on the experimental data, the...

An increasing number of studies have revealed the interconnections and interactions between global warming and microplastics. However, research in this field is still in its early stages, with fragmented content and inconsistent conclusions. Therefore, this paper adopts a meta‐analysis method to summarize and analyze the relevant literature in this area. After screening, a total of 39 research papers and 730 data points relate...
