Microplastics studies in Southeast Australian waters (NESP MaC 1.18)

We undertook a review of peer-reviewed publications focusing on coastal and marine microplastics relevant to South Eastern Australia (South Australia, Victoria, and New South Wales), as well as from ongoing citizen science programmes from AUSMAP. Here we summarise the location of the studies on microplastics, if the study focused on water, sediment or biota, and the DOI of the publication.
