Microplastics concentration in deep sea sediments in the northeast Atlantic Ocean margins collected with an ROV aboard RV Celtic Explorer from 2019-08-03 to 2019-08-19 (NCEI Accession 0277496)

This study was carried out to estimate the microplastics (i.e. plastics measuring less than 5mm, reported in unit of pieces kg-1 d.w.) concentration in deep sea sediments in the northeast Atlantic Ocean margins. Microplastics data was collected from 2019-08-03 to 2019-08-19 using a remotely operated vehicle aboard RV Celtic Explorer. This dataset contains the results from all 40 sampling efforts, in a spreadsheet format.
