Datasets of measurements of microplastics in the the Siberian Arctic seas
AI summary Read the abstract
This is a data repository entry containing measurement datasets for microplastics collected from surface and subsurface waters in the Siberian Arctic seas. The datasets include parameters such as weight, size, polymer type, and morphology for each particle detected. This is a data release supporting a published research study.
Dataset chem.xlsx contains data on parameters (weight, size, polymer type, morphology) for each microplastic particle at different stations for both surface and subsurface samples. Dataset stations.xlsx contains data on abundance and weight concentrations of microplastics at the stations for both surface and subsurface samples.

Microplastics in Surface Waters of the Russian Arctic Seas: Distribution, Concentration, Identification, and Eco-Risks for Fish
AI summary Read the abstract
Microplastics were detected across surface waters of the Russian Arctic seas, with concentrations and polymer types varying by region and season. The findings document that even high-latitude Arctic waters are not spared from microplastic contamination, likely transported by ocean currents and rivers.

This is an earlier version of the dataset for the Arctic microplastics study in the Finnish Sámi area. The data document plastic particle presence in remote northern waters, providing baseline information for monitoring pollution trends in this ecologically sensitive region.
Microplastics distribution in the Eurasian Arctic is affected by Atlantic waters and Siberian rivers
AI summary Read the abstract
Analysis of 60 water samples from the Eurasian Arctic found average microplastic concentrations of 0.004 items/m³ in surface net samples and 0.8 items/m³ in subsurface pump samples, with particle type and abundance differing significantly between Atlantic water masses and Siberian river plumes.
