Mona Rahmani

I am an Asssistant Professor at the University of British Columbia. My research focus is on understanding the motion of solid particles suspended in fluid flows. I am interested in understanding how microplastics are transported vertically and horizontally in natural water systems such as oceans, lakes, and rivers and also in smaller setups such as wastewater treatment facilities. I hope by understanding the aggregation, settling, and dispersion of microplastics we can propose strategies for tracking, capturing, and cleanup of microplastics.
