Title of dataset | Microplastic-like particles in sediments from Danish waters 2015 |
Narrative summary of dataset | Contents and composition of microplastic-like particles have been analysed in ten sediment samples from the Danish part of the open North Sea and in the Inner Danish waters in 2015. The contents of microplastic-like particles in the size range 100-5000 µm were determined to be in the range of 192-3511 particles per kg dry weight sediment, dominated by blue and black coloured particles, mainly as fibres, and particle sizes < 300 µm were dominating. |
