Title: |
Microplastic concentrations in surface water and snow from multiple locations across Alaska collected from 2020-03-01 to 2021-07-15 (NCEI Accession 0288866) |
Abstract: |
This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5 mm; reported in unit of particles/L) in surface water and snow from multiple environmental setting (i.e., rivers, lakes, creeks, and snow) and locations across Alaska during 2020-03-01 to 2021-07-15. Grab samples were collected using glass or polycarbonate bottles for examination of microplastics. This dataset contains the results from all 62 samples, in a spreadsheet format. |
