Marine debris dataset of Heard Island and Macquarie Island beaches and observed from ships, 1987-2002
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
Marine debris records from beaches on Heard and Macquarie Islands and floating debris spotted on voyages.
Description
Data were collected by observers surveying beaches either methodically or opportunistically, and by observers spotting debris as it floated past ships. The data were originally collated into a searchable database, but the application is no longer supported by the Australian Antarctic Data Centre.
An extract of the data is attached to this metadata record. The extract is in Excel format, and each worksheet is a copy of a database table.
