Title: |
Microplastic concentrations in deep-sea sediments from Rockall Trough (Scotland, UK) collected aboard RRS Discovery on 2017-05-18 (NCEI Accession 0278002) |
Abstract: |
This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm, reported in unit of pieces per g d.w.) in deep-sea sediments from Rockall Trough (Scotland, UK) on 2017-05-18. Microplastic data were collected aboard RRS Discovery using a megacorer. This dataset contains the results from all 90 deep-sea sediment samples, in a spreadsheet format. |
