Dear #microplastic community. I do not know if you heard of this survey, feel free to participate to this 🇩🇪 initiative. It is important for those analysing ⚗️ plastic within #solid #matrices.
How much time and resources do you spend analyzing #plastics in solid matrices? Have you ever wondered if there are more efficient or less expensive #methods that work just as well? We want to find out — with your help!
Join us at https://rptu.de/s/solidm
With this survey, we want to assess the time, personnel, and material requirements of your methods to identify best practices.
Your expertise makes all the difference!
Fresh on CRAN: #rstats 📦 #envalysis 0.6.0 with a super simple workflow for analytical calibration curves. Check out https://zsteinmetz.de/envalysis/articles/calibration.html for all the details.
Today's #forschungaktuell features @cjweber and @mrillig at #dbg2023 on #microplastics in #soil.
#rstats 📦 #OpenSpecy 1.0 is now out on CRAN with tons of new features including better handling of spectral data, particle analysis, and an #AI classification algorithm 🥳
Check out our new man pages at http://wincowger.com/OpenSpecy-package/ for all the details. A polished #Shiny app is available here for review: https://wincowger.shinyapps.io/reviewer_app/
Shout out to @wincowger and everybody else involved in this massive team effort.
Raman and (FT)IR spectral analysis tool for plastic particles and other environmental samples (Cowger et al. 2021, <doi:10.1021/acs.analchem.1c00123>). With read_any(), Open Specy provides a single function for reading individual, batch, or map spectral data files like .asp, .csv, .jdx, .spc, .spa, .0, and .zip. process_spec() simplifies processing spectra, including smoothing, baseline correction, range restriction and flattening, intensity conversions, wavenumber alignment, and min-max normalization. Spectra can be identified in batch using an onboard reference library (Cowger et al. 2020, <doi:10.1177/0003702820929064>) using match_spec(). A Shiny app is available via run_app() or online at <https://openanalysis.org/openspecy/>.

Just learned about diamond #openaccess today, a community-driven publication model free of charge for both authors and readers. #openscience all the way!
Can you recommend any indexed journals in #soil and #environmental science, analytical #chemistry, or #plasticpollution research supporting 💎 OA?
@DOAJ lists a few but not too many. And there is this compilation of German 💎 OA journals: https://pub.uni-bielefeld.de/record/2963331. What about @scipost?
Look at these great tools by @MattHodges and @mauforonda. They generate regular #digests of popular #mastodon posts from your timeline in case you missed anything. Looking forward to trying them out! 😍
