Modelled microplastics trajectories in Jervis Bay for different modelling approaches (2D and 3D) and different vertical turbulence conditions

Trajectories of floating microplastics released at 18 locations covering the whole coast of Jervis Bay for three scenarios: 2D approach, 3D approach with weak vertical turbulence, and 3D approach with strong vertical turbulence. For each scenario, twenty particles per hour were released at each seeding site in surface waters during 3 days from 26 June 1998. The dataset includes all of the trajectories used in the publication: Rojas et al. (2019).
