Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Traffic-related materials, aqueous film-forming foams, infrastructure/building materials, house/street dust and litters, and atmospheric deposition are potential PFAS sources in urban stormwater systems.

    “Traffic-related materials (e.g., grease and fluids in steering, brake, and suspension systems, and road marking paints), aqueous film-forming foams (AFFFs) for firefighting, infrastructure/building materials (e.g., cables, hoses, and cement additives), house/street dust and litters (e.g., food packaging), and atmospheric deposition are some of the potential PFAS sources in urban stormwater systems”
  • A possible source of PFUnDA could be traffic-related, as it has been identified as a major component of automotive lubricant oils and has been found in stormwater from highly trafficked areas in Paris.

    “A possible source could be traffic-related, as it has been identified as a major component of automotive lubricant oils (Zhu and Kannan, 2020) and has been found in stormwater from highly trafficked areas in Paris (Gasperi et al., 2022).”
  • Several PFAS have been found in automotive grease.

    “Several PFAS (C4−C12 PFCAs and C4, C6, C8, and C10 PFSA) have been found in automotive grease.28”
  • Apart from well-known industrial uses such as fire-fighting foams and metal-plating mist suppressants, PFAS sources particularly relevant to outdoor urban environments include construction materials such as paints and coatings, roofing materials, outdoor textiles, solar panels, and synthetic turf; paper-based litter; and automotive parts and fluids.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
