Project: How does intensity and frequency of environmental variability affect phytoplankton growth? (Enviro variability and phytoplankton growth)

This dataset includes specific growth rates from subsamples taken from Trichodesmium erythraeum GBR strain incubated at different temperatures and phosphate concentrations to examine the interaction of intensity of thermal variability and phosphate limitation on growth rates, carbon fixation, and nitrogen fixation rates.
