Title: Microplastics concentration collected from four coastal areas of the Mediterranean Sea: Saronikos Gulf, Ligurian Sea, Gulf of Lion, and Gabes Gulf, from 2018-09-05 to 2019-11-20 (NCEI Accession 0270528)
Abstract: This study was carried out to estimate the microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm, reported in unit of pieces/m^3) concentration in four coastal areas of the Mediterranean Sea, namely, Saronikos Gulf, Ligurian Sea, Gulf of Lion, and Gabes Gulf. Microplastics data was collected from 2018-09-05 to 2019-11-20 using manta net. This dataset contains the results from all 71 surface net tows, in a spreadsheet format.
