Summary

This dataset documents microplastics found in tidal floodwater, saltmarshes, and tidal creeks in Charleston, SC, where sea level rise causes regular street flooding that may spread microplastics and tire wear particles into sensitive coastal habitats.

Polymers

Data collected on microplastic pollution in street floodwater associated with tidal flooding resulting from sea level rise in lowlying Charleston, SC. Also includes microplastic and tire wear particle abundance in salt marshes and tidal creeks adjacent to streets experiencing flooding.
