Summary: | The dataset below provides information about the microplastic contamination in the Kuril Kamchatka Trench in the NW Pacific Ocean. The samples were collected in summer 2016 during the Kurambio II expedition with RV Sonne. Each sample represents the first 5 cm of the sediment and the above sediment-water interface. The data table depicts the results of the analysis carried out on 8 Sediment samples, collected with a Multicorer (OKTOPUS GmbH, Kiel, Germany). The samples represent the first five cm of the deep seafloor at four sampling stations of the Kuril Kamchatka trench. |
