Baseline levels of microplastics in agricultural soils obscure the effects of additional microplastics from recycled fertilizers by Collin J. Weber, Dominika Kundel, Andreas Fliessbach, Else K. Bünemann, Moritz Bigalke

“…Whilst it was observed from the fluxes that digestate can be a substantial source of microplastics to soils, the comparatively short time of application and the high background at our investigated sites leads to a obscured effect where digestate inputs serve a limited function.…”

Spontaneous blinking and brain health in aging: Large-scale evaluation of blink-related oscillations across the lifespan by Sujoy Ghosh Hajra, Jed A. Meltzer, Prerana Keerthi, Chloe Pappas, Allison B. Sekuler, Cam-CAN Group, Careesa Chang Liu

“…Crucially, these age-related differences were not observed in the behavioral measures of task performance such as reaction time and accuracy, suggesting that blink-related neural responses during the target detection task are more sensitive in capturing aging-related brain function changes compared to behavioral measures alone. …”
