Project: Can the availability of B-vitamins control phyto-and-bacterioplankton successions in a coastal upwelling region? (B-vitamin plankton succession)


Abstract

This dataset includes nutrients (POC, PON, POP) and chlorophyll concentrations, and cell counts for picoplankton (picoeukaryotes, Synechococcus, bacteria) collected in water samples from the San Pedro Ocean Time-series (SPOT), 2015. They were incubated with six treatments of nitrate and vitamin B.
