Eulerian modelling of the three-dimensional distribution of seven popular microplastic types in the global ocean dataset
Summary
This dataset provides model outputs from a three-dimensional ocean circulation model simulating the global distribution of seven common microplastic types at different ocean depths. The data supports research into how different plastic densities and sizes determine where microplastics accumulate in the world's oceans.
Dataset for the paper "Eulerian modelling of the three-dimensional distribution of seven popular microplastic types in the global ocean" by A. S. Mountford and M. A. Morales Maqueda.
