  <dc:description xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Abundance data of microlitter (including microplastics) in riverine samples 
(sediment, surface waters and biota) were collected at selected locations 
across the Orange-Senqu River basin and associated land use in 2021.

The file entitled 'List microlitter biota' presents the abundance of 
microplastics in riverine biota at selected locations across the Orange-Senqu 
River basin.

The file entitled 'List microlitter sediment' presents the abundance of 
microplastics in riverine sediments at selected locations across the 
Orange-Senqu River basin. 

The file entitled 'List microlitter surface waters' presents the abundance of 
microplastics in riverine surface waters at selected locations across the 
Orange-Senqu River basin.

The file entitled 'LU' summarises the local watershed traits including 
population density, land use, rainfall and flows.</dc:description>
