Eulerian modelling of the three-dimensional distribution of seven popular microplastic types in the global ocean dataset

Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research) 2019
Alethea S. Mountford, M. Á. Morales Maqueda

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.
