Abstract

MPSizeBase compiles published MP particle size distribution (PSD) and MP concentration data. Its purpose is to allow intercomparison of MP number and mass concentrations over a standardized range, typically the formal 1-5000um range. To do so, the published PSD is transformed into a cumulative PSD, fitted with the power law, and then extrapolated. Users can add published MP datasets here: https://www.get.omp.eu/mpsizebase/
