This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm) in subsurface coastal waters along the southern coast of Viti Levu in Fiji, South Pacific, during 2018-01-27 to 2018-03-05. Microplastics in the surface water were collected with Niskin bottles. The dataset includes temperature, dissolved oxygen and salinity measurements. This dataset contains the results from all 84 samples, in a spreadsheet format.
