Description
Data from Sullivan et al., (in press) In situ correlation between microplastic and suspended particulate matter concentrations in river-estuary systems support proxies for satellite-derived estimates of microplastic flux, Marine Pollution Bulletin.
It contains the summary of the in situ measurements of TSM and microplastic counts and concentrations for each site. For more detail on the methods, users are directed to the methods section 2.2 of the open access paper.
