Kiessling et al. 2021 Results of floating macrolitter and floating meso-/microplastic pollution for each sampling site

Summary

This is a duplicate dataset record for the Kiessling et al. 2021 citizen science study in which German schoolchildren mapped floating plastic pollution in rivers, providing site-level results for both macrolitter and meso- and microplastic floating pollution. The underlying study demonstrated the value of schoolchildren as environmental monitors for plastic contamination.

Full dataset for sampling sites considered by Kiessling et al. 2021 "Citizen scientists discover hotspots of meso- and microplastics – schoolchildren in Germany investigate floating litter in rivers". Results for floating macrolitter and floating micro-/mesoplastic pollution and metadata are listed in the table. Please refer to the manuscript at https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2021.147849 for a detailed description of sampling methods.
