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 two-tiered pilot study consisting of a mini review focusing on sampling of microplastic in marine surface water and a test sampling of microplastic particles in the Inner Danish Waters using the FerryBox system on board the Oslo-Kiel ferry.
