Sea ice concentration during POLARSTERN cruise PS93.2
AI summary Read the abstract
This dataset provides sea ice concentration measurements during the POLARSTERN cruise PS93.2 in the Arctic, supplementing Bergmann et al. (2017), which investigated high quantities of microplastic in Arctic deep-sea sediments from the HAUSGARTEN Observatory. The data enables correlation of sea ice conditions with microplastic distribution patterns in the Arctic Ocean.

Bulk sediment parameters during POLARSTERN cruise PS93.2
AI summary Read the abstract
This dataset provides bulk sediment parameters collected during the POLARSTERN cruise PS93.2 in the Arctic, supplementing the study by Bergmann et al. (2017) that reported high quantities of microplastic in Arctic deep-sea sediments from the HAUSGARTEN Observatory. The data was published in PANGAEA and supports analysis of microplastic contamination in deep-sea sediment environments.
Identification and Quantification of Microplastics in Arctic Sea Ice North of Svalbard
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers identified and quantified microplastics in Arctic sea ice north of Svalbard, finding microplastic particles encased in sea ice at concentrations consistent with prior studies in the region. The work contributes to documenting the extent of plastic pollution in one of the world's most remote and climatically sensitive environments.
Microplastics in Arctic sea ice: a prime temporary sink for (micro-)plastics and a medium of transport
AI summary Read the abstract
This study found that Arctic sea ice contains high concentrations of microplastics, acting as a temporary sink that accumulates plastic from the water column — with concern that rapid sea ice loss due to climate change will release these stored particles back into the ocean.
High Quantities of Microplastic in Arctic Deep-Sea Sediments from the HAUSGARTEN Observatory
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers found high quantities of microplastics in deep-sea sediments from the Arctic HAUSGARTEN observatory, demonstrating that even remote deep Arctic seafloor environments have accumulated significant microplastic pollution.
