Summary

This is a peer reviewer's assessment of a study modeling microplastic and sediment particle transport in the Baltic Sea using a chain of numerical models including atmospheric, ocean circulation, wave, and sediment transport models.

Study Type Environmental

A study presented in the manuscript investigates the transport of particles (having a given set of properties -density and size) by means of a chain of existing and well established numerical models. They include an atmospheric model, a general ocean circulation model, a spectral wind wave model and two sediment transport models in the Eulerian formulation. From the previous studies (Chubarenko, Enders, Khatmullina) the authors adopted the idea that the behaviour of small polymer particles is somewhat similar to those of natural origin, well-studied previously. This led them
