abstract: This study was carried out to estimate the floating microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm, reported in unit of pieces/m^3) concentration in the world oceans. Microplastics data were collected with neuston nets during 24 expeditions that occurred between 2007 and 2013. This dataset contains the results from all 680 sampling stations, in a spreadsheet format.
purpose: These data were collected in order to determine the microplastics concentrations in the world oceans during 2007-09-16 to 2013-09-08

description: Parameter or Variable: MICROPLASTIC CONCENTRATION (measured); Units: pieces/m3; Observation Category: in situ; Sampling Instrument: Neuston net; Sampling and Analyzing Method: Net tows were conducted using neuston nets with a standard mesh size of 0.33 mm towed between 0.5 and 2 ms-1 at the sea surface for 15–60 minutes outside of the vessel’s wake to avoid downwelling of debris. Samples were preserved in 5% formalin. Using a dissecting microscope, microplastic was manually separated from natural debris, sorted through stacked Tyler sieves, then counted individually. During sample analysis the identity of smaller microplastics was confirmed with buoyancy and hardness tests. All items were counted and weighed to the nearest 0.01 mg. Using these data, trawl dimensions and distance traveled, microplastics densities were estimated.; Data Quality Method: The slow tow speed and the washing of the net between the tows when needed provided sufficient confidence that any variation in sample collection efficiency due to the net size, difference in tow speed or tow time were negligible..
