Statement

Particle size distributions were measured with a Malvern Mastersizer 2000 laser diffraction particle size analyser. All samples were placed on a shaking table for at least 10 minutes prior to analysis. Each sample was run 3 times in order to check the reproducibility of the measurements. The mean of each set of results was taken to calculate the values for each sample. The raw data are also included. All analyses were conducted at the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton.
