Xinyu Ge, Yuanyuan Tang

Summary

This is a data record providing original field measurements of microplastics distribution in water and sediment from the Yangtze River Estuary and East China Sea, including abundance, size, shape, and color alongside water parameters. The dataset supports research on how bottom water dynamics mediate microplastic transport and deposition in this major river-estuary-coastal sea system. It serves as a primary resource for studies of microplastic fate in estuarine and shelf environments.

Study Type Environmental

This database included the original data of water parameters, microplastics abundance, microplastics size, shape, color and shape.
