Summary

This dataset provides the abundance of microplastics in surface sediment samples collected during the POLARSTERN cruise PS93.2 in the Arctic, supplementing Bergmann et al. (2017), which reported high quantities of microplastic in Arctic deep-sea sediments from the HAUSGARTEN Observatory. The data supports spatial analysis of microplastic contamination in Arctic deep-sea sediment environments.
