Abstract

Protist rates from epifluorescence counts; cyanobacteria rates from flow cytometry; bulk rates from extracted chlorophyll-a from R/V Atlantic Explorer cruises AE1102, AE1118, AE1206, AE1219 in the Sargasso Sea, BATS, 2011-2012.

Protist rates based on epifluorescence counts; cyanobacteria rates based on flow cytometry data (Mike Lomas' group); bulk rates based on extracted chlorophyll-a. Samples were collected during four cruises in the Sargasso Sea during spring and summer 2011-2012.
