| Title: |
Microplastics concentrations in the surface waters of Kingston Harbor, Jamaica collected from 2017-09-14 to 2017-12-15 (NCEI Accession 0284765) |
| Abstract: |
This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm; reported in unit of items/m3 and items/km2) in the surface waters of Kingston Harbor, Jamaica collected from 2017-09-14 to 2017-12-15. Microplastics were collected using a Manta net with a mesh size of 335 μm, towed at 1 knot for 15 minutes. This dataset contains the results from all 32 surface water samples, in a spreadsheet format. |
