The maximum densities are between 0 and 100 m depth for plankton. Is it representative of Danish waters ? Is it the same for microplastics or below 300 nm plastics can dive further ?

The first part of the title could have been better

Good news for the second part though

You're quite right. Other Danish scientists, quoted in Danish media, are sceptical that all samples were taken from animals midway in the water column and not from feeders at the ocean bottom. This research is interesting, but not a complete picture.
