Microplastic observations from water and sediment in the Scheldt Estuary (2024–2025), collected and analysed within the PLASTFLOW project by the Flanders Marine Institute, Ghent University, and the University of Antwerp.
","EngDescr":"This dataset is part of the PLASTFLOW project and contains tidal-cycle, hotspot, and spot-sampling observations of microplastic presence in the Scheldt Estuary, acquired in the context of the Flemish Integral Action Plan on Marine Litter (OVAM). Microplastics were collected from surface water using a manta net and throughout the water column with a FerryBox sampling system. Sediment samples were acquired using a Van Veen Grab. Sampling was performed during 2024–2025 at eight different locations in the Scheldt Estuary.
