Nevertheless, lab-scale studies are limited in incorporating all the environmental factors simultaneously, including mimicking seasonal variations (e.g., biofilms) and hydraulic factors (e.g., stream bed size and material), thus there exists a need to better understand the NPs behavior in realistic streams.	cache/12579s18w7w.txt	txt/12579s18w7w.txt
