Project: Testing hypotheses about diversity, gene flow, and effective population size in marine planktonic ciliates (CiliateDivGenePop)

Physical data from the LIS0507 cruise recorded by CTD and ADCP. Note that temperature, salinity, and oxygen concentration values are from CTD casts (averaged for depth of water) and not from the niskin bottles used to collect samples for DNA analysis. There is a lag in time and some drift of reaserch vessel between the two, since the niskin bottles were not on the CTD itself.
