Summary

Description
English: Figure 1: Global oceanic distribution of microplastics. Surface currents are depicted by blue arrows, while dotted lines enclose areas where microplastic input may be due to fishing activities (red) or land-based actvities (green). Microplastic concentration is placed on a scale from 0–10 kg/m^2. Note the higher microplastic concentration within the North Pacific gyre, due to convergent Ekman transport.
