Dataset: Prochlorococcus N and C uptake from R/V Atlantic Explorer AE1032 in the Western Subtropical North Atlantic from Oct. 2010 (Nitrogen uptake in Prochlorococcus project)

Nitrogen and carbon uptake rates and cell element quotas for flow-sorted phytoplankton taxa (Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, eukaryotes). Samples were collected from the Sargasso Sea in Oct-Nov. 2010.
