Sammendrag
The EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive require that EU Member States establish appropriate strategies and sampling programmes for microplastic in the marine environment. We report the results of a second study sampling microplastics in the Inner Danish Water using the Ferrybox system onboard the ‘M/S Color Line Fantasy’ ferry between Oslo and Kiel. This study aimed to supplement and extend a pilot project following recommendations to increase sample frequency and sample volume.
