| Title: |
Concentrations of surface microplastics in the Arrábida coastal area, Portugal collected from 2018-08-22 to 2019-02-27 (NCEI Accession 0279324) |
| Abstract: |
This study estimated the concentration of surface microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm; reported in unit of items/m3) in the Arrábida coastal area, Portugal from 2018-08-22 to 2019-02-27. Microplastics in the surface water were collected using a neuston net. This dataset contains the results from all 36 surface water samples, in a spreadsheet format |
