Data provided by National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm) in water and zooplankton in Kenyaâs marine environment during 2017-02-10 to 2017-02-18. Microplastics in the water were collected with a stainless-steel bucket while zooplankton were collected with a zooplankton net. This dataset contains the results from all 11 water samples and 11 zooplankton samples, in a spreadsheet format.
