©2020 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.These data include particle aggregate size, morphology, and fragmentation statistics obtained from laboratory experiments using a disaggregation roller tank that exposed aggregates to time-varying laminar shear. Particle aggregates were formed by rolling polystyrene microspheres at a slow constant rate. Laboratory experiments were conducted at Penn State University in 2021. Polystyrene aggregates were specifically studied to provide a controlled experiment to which we could compare disaggregatio...
