Fecha de publicación: | 2016 | Editor: | Elsevier | Citación: | Marine Environmental Research 120: 136-144 (2016) | Resumen: | In two sea voyages throughout the Mediterranean (2011 and 2013) that repeated the historical travels of Archduke Ludwig Salvator of Austria (1847e1915), 71 samples of floating plastic debris were obtained with a Manta trawl. Floating plastic was observed in all the sampled sites, with an average weight concentration of 579.3 g dw km 2 (maximum value of 9298.2 g dw km 2) and an average particle concentration of 147,500 items km 2 (the maximum concentration was 1,164,403 items km 2). The plastic size distribution showed microplastics (<5 mm) in all the samples. The most abundant particles had a surface area of approximately 1 mm2 (the mesh size was 333 mm). The general estimate obtained was a total value of 1455 tons dw of floating plastic in the entire Mediterranean region, with various potential spatial accumulation areas. | Descripción: | 9 páginas, 5 figuras, 2 tablas. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.marenvres.2016.08.001 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/135617 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.marenvres.2016.08.001 | ISSN: | 0141-1136 | E-ISSN: | 1879-0291 |
