Summary

Description
English: Global microplastic abundance at the ocean surface (ArcGIS)

Modelled Sea-surface Microplastic Abundances (Particles km-2) Using Data from the Van Sebille Model (2015) with the Abundances Plotted on a Log Scale (Blue = Low, Red = High).

Countries are colour-coded by the percentage of global aquaculture output that they produce. Finally, organisms that have been reported to have ingested microplastic in the available literature are marked with their location, species, and average number of particles found per individual. The organisms have been grouped into common classifications using symbols for ease of interpretation. All data were modelled and plotted using ArcGIS version 10.6.1, and countries' shapefiles were obtained from ArcGIS Online service. Abbreviations: MP/ind-1, microplastics per individual; MP/KM_2, microplastics per kilometer squared.
