Microplastic uptake by earthworms across European agricultural soils

Description

Dataset and metadata on the abundance of earthworm species and microplastic contents in earthworms, sampled from agricultural soils across Europe. This data is part of PAPILLONS European spatial survey. Microplastic analyses were conducted at Norwegian Institute for Water Research (NIVA) and earthworm community analyses at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU), Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) and Univeristy of Jyväskylä. Several institutes across Europe were involved in the samplings and acknowledged as contributors. The data on microplastics and plastic additives in soil samples are found in: https://zenodo.org/records/15540049
