“…Four types of biodegradable plastics were evaluated for their biodegradability in seawater collected at Ajigaura coast, Japan, in the presence or absence of marine sand. One of the plastics, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBH), showed a degree of biodegradation in a seawater sample, and the addition of marine sand markedly accelerated its biodegradation. …”

“…Therefore, in this study, we took the Yangjiaping bank slope in the TGRA as an example and proposed a comprehensive on-site detection method to further reveal the rock mass degradation phenomenon of this typical reverse sand-mudstone interbedded bank slope. Specifically, multi-scale laser scanning, cross-hole acoustic wave detection, and inclination measurements were performed to analyze the fractures, quality, and deformation of rocky banks. …”
