Title: Microplastics concentrations in sediments from the Central Adriatic Sea collected from 2015-11-17 to 2015-11-18 (NCEI Accession 0292622)
Abstract: This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm; reported in unit of pieces per m2) in sediments from the Central Adriatic Sea collected from 2015-11-17 to 2015-11-18. Microplastics were collected using a Van Veen grab. This dataset contains the results from all 16 sediment samples, in a spreadsheet format.
