This dataset contains 2 csv file. Belize_Sediment_Microplastics.csv file
reports data on microplastic abundance in sediment expressed in number of
particles for 5g sediment. Sediment was collected at six locations in Belize
between May and June 2019, but only four were analysed for microplastics due
to time restrictions (only PSA reported for the two sites left). The file also
reports information on blank used for calculations, grab GPS coordinates,
deployment time and the particulate size analysis (PSA) of the sediment.
Belize_Sediment_Microplastics_FTIR.csv contains the profile of a ATR-FT-IR
spectrum analysis of a plastic particle (>5mm). A READ-ME text file contains
the legend of the columns of the csv file. A .zip file contains the picture of
the plastic particle analysed with ATR-FT-IR.
