Data provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
This study estimated the concentration of floating microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm) in the Galway Bay, a coastal embayment in Northeast Atlantic Ocean during 2017-10-09 to 2017-12-08. Microplastics were collected with a manta net trawl aboard R/V Celtic Voyager. A detailed breakdown of microplastic particles is provided. This includes color, length, and width. Volume of water sampled, sampling area and wind data are included. This dataset contains the results from all 20 microplastic samples, in a spreadsheet format.
