Microplastic concentrations in Mexican beaches from 2018-04-08 to 2018-07-17 (NCEI Accession 0278270)

Description

This study estimated the concentration of surface microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm, reported in unit of pieces/m2) in Mexican beaches from 2018-04-08 to 2018-07-17. Microplastic data were collected using a PVC cylinder. This dataset contains the results from all 330 beach sand samples, in a spreadsheet format.
