abstract: This study estimated the concentration of marine plastics in waters around Australia using surface Neuston and Manta net tows. Data was collected during seven transit voyages aboard Australian vessels. The study undertook three consecutive 15-minute net tows at 57 locations. The 839 marine plastics recorded during the study were predominantly small fragments (i.e. ‘‘microplastics’’, median length = 2.8 mm, mean length = 4.9 mm) resulting from the breakdown of larger objects made of polyethylene and polypropylene (e.g. packaging and fishing items).
purpose: These microplastics data were collected in order to characterize, estimate the concentrations, determine accumulation zones and transport pathways of marine plastics in waters around Australia.

description: Parameter or Variable: MICROPLASTIC CONCENTRATION (measured); Units: pieces/m3; Observation Category: in situ; Sampling Instrument: Neuston net; Manta net; Sampling and Analyzing Method: Data was collected from seven transit voyages aboard Australian vessels using Neuston and Manta nets tows. Three consecutive 15-minute net tows were done at 57 locations while the ship was travelling at a speed of 2 – 4 knots. After each net tow, the collected material was transferred to a container filled with seawater. Each plastic piece was picked up with forceps and placed in a graduated dish to be counted, measured (length), photographed and classified into type and color.; Data Quality Method: A random sample of 200 plastic pieces was selected for polymer composition analysis by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. Data on these random sample of 200 plastic pieces are not included in this package..
