공공데이터포털

This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm; reported in unit of items/kg d.w.) in shoreline and seabed sediments in the Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island, USA, during 2020-09-25 to 2021-06-03. Microplastics in the shoreline sediments were collected using a metal spoon while those in the seabed sediments were collected using a Van Veen grab sampler. Data on sediment dry weight (reported in unit of g) and individual counts of microplastic fibers, fragments and films are provided. This dataset contains the results from all 76 shoreline and 7 seabed sediment samples, in a spreadsheet format.

공공데이터포털

This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm) in the surface water (reported in unit of pieces/m3), beach sediments (reported in unit of pieces/m3), and crude salt (reported in unit of pieces/kg), in the northern Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh coast during 2019-03-22 to 2020-01-05. Microplastics in the surface water were collected using a manta net while those in the sediment and crude salt were collected using a trowel. This dataset contains the results from all 18 surface water, 60 sediment, and 27 crude salt samples, in a spreadsheet format.
