| Data Availability | Name | Objective | Description | Dates |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Downloadable | drying_sieving_data | The beach sand collected was dried and then sieved through a sieve stack. Each sieve was handpicked and data collected on all microplastics found. | 2024-06-20 (ongoing) | |
| Downloadable | FTIR_analysis_2024 | A subset of the microplastics found in the sand samples were run through an FTIR machine. The resulting polymers from the library on the machine and OpenSpecy are included here along with the r2 value from OpenSpecy. Read More | 2024-06-20 (ongoing) | |
| Downloadable | Microscopic_analysis_2024 | Microplastics found in the beach sand samples were examined under a stereomicroscope to determine their size, shape, and color. | 2024-06-20 (ongoing) |
