©2020 Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office.This dataset contains microbial cell counts in seawater samples collected on R/V Nerissa and R/V Yellowfin cruises at the San Pedro Ocean Time-series (SPOT) in 2017. Samples for microbial cell counts were collected at six depths within the euphotic zone using Niskin bottles. Autotrophic picoplankton (Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, and picoeukaryotes) and heterotrophic prokaryotes were enumerated by flow cytometry.

Samples for microbial cell counts were collected at six depths within the euphotic zone (5-250 m). Seawater was collected from each CTD depth using Niskin bottles, immediately fixed with formalin 2% (0.72% formaldehyde final concentration), and immediately frozen at -80C. Autotrophic picoplankton (Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, and picoeukaryotes) and heterotrophic prokaryotes were enumerated by flow cytometry (Becton Dickinson FACSCalibur) (Gasol and del Giorgio, 2000).
