Microplastic concentrations on sandy beaches along the northern coast of Taiwan from 2015-06-04 to 2015-09-14 (NCEI Accession 0277999)

Description

This study estimated the concentration of microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm, reported in unit of pieces/m3) on sandy beaches along the northern coast of Taiwan from 2015-06-04 to 2015-09-14. Microplastic data were collected using a metal scoop. This dataset contains the results from all 8 sediment samples, in a spreadsheet format.
