Mapped solution of microplastic mass based on Lebreton model

AI summary Read the abstract

This dataset provides modeled estimates of microplastic mass distribution across global ocean surfaces using the Lebreton model, as part of a comparative study of ocean plastic transport models. The data supports quantification of the global scale of microplastic pollution.

Data for the map of microplastic mass from the Lebreton model shown in Figure 3d of Van Sebille et al (Environmental Research Letters, 2015, http://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1748-9326/10/12/124006) See also the associated lon, lat and area fields.
