The dataset provides information about the microplastic contamination in surface waters of the Weddell Sea, Antarctica. Samples (n = 34) were collected during two expeditions on...

Data on the microplastic distribution (microfragments and microfibers) in the different stations sampled along the Pletera beach File description: 1- MP Concentration Columns...

From October 2020 to June 2021 the Surfing for Science project engaged volunteers to collect scientific samples on floating microplastics in nearshore waters of the NW...

Microlitter distribution from tropical to temperate regions of the Atlantic Ocean was assessed using the pump-underway ship intake system. Sampling was performed during the...

Plastics are pervasive in marine ecosystems and ubiquitous in both shallow and deep oceans. Microfibers, amongst other microplastics, accumulate in deep sea sediments at...

This data set provides mass quantitative data of microplastics (MP) including tire wear particles (TWP) in northern Atlantic air. Air samples were taken with two different...

This data set represents a simultaneously taken data set for overlying air, sea surface microlayer (SML, < 1 mm depth), and underlying water (ULW, 1 m depth) for microplastic...

Understanding temporal trends in microplastic deposition in marine sedimentary environments can help to determine relationships between microplastics and sedimentary processes,...

The present dataset relates to an experiment studying the impacts of particles on chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) dynamics by comparing three scenarios: a...

The Mediterranean Sea and its coastal systems are threatened by intense anthropogenic pressures including rapid accumulation of marine litter by diverse human activities. The...

This dataset consists of a quantitative imaging dataset of ZooScan-imaged mesoplankton and microplastics, collected with the Manta net (333 µm mesh size) aboard the schooner...

Sampling was performed during the PYROWIND oceanographic campaign in the Atlantic Ocean (April 27th – May 19th 2022), on board of the Spanish R/V Hespérides. The research cruise...

The dataset provides information about the microplastic contamination in subsurface water samples pumped from a depth of ∼11.2 m in the Weddell Sea, Antarctica. Samples (n = 79)...

Four datafiles are present here linked with four studies: (1) A survey with a Dutch Representative sample to investigate people's knowledge on microplastics (MPs), acceptance...

The COntinuous MicroPlastic Automatic Sampling System (COMPASS) was utilized for sampling of microplastic (MP) samples. Developed by Aalborg University in Denmark, COMPASS is a...
