Title: Microplastics concentration collected aboard ice breaker Oden in the Arctic Central basin from 2016-08-09 to 2016-09-16 (NCEI Accession 0270539)
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 the Arctic Central basin. Microplastics data was collected from 2016-08-09 to 2016-09-16 aboard the Swedish icebreaker Oden. Ocean water was pumped onboard the vessel via the bow water system to collect microplastics samples. This dataset contains the results from all 58 sampling stations, in a spreadsheet format.
