Abstract
⺠We examined distribution of litter and plant debris in the deep N Gulf of Mexico. ⺠Litter was encountered more frequently in the eastern than in the western GoM. ⺠Land-derived plant debris was primarily within the head of the Mississippi Canyon. ⺠Ocean-derived plant material was spread evenly throughout the NE GoM. ⺠The Mississippi Canyon was a focal point for litter.
