Abundances of phytoplankton and non-pigmented bacteria determined by flow cytometry from water samples collected on R/V Roger Revelle cruise RR2201 in the Eastern Indian Ocean during February and March 2022
Abstract:
This dataset is from CTD-based water collections of samples for phytoplankton and non-pigmented bacteria in the Indian Ocean on an R/V Roger Revelle cruise in Feb-March 2022 led by Dr. Michael Landry to investigate the plankton dynamics and impacts on growth and survival of larval Southern Bluefin Tuna (SBT). These flow cytometry results include abundances of phytoplankton taxa (Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, photosynthetic eukaryotes), non-pigmented bacteria (HBACT), heterotrophic eukaryotes (HEUK), and potential mixotrophic eukaryotes (MEUK). Photosynthetic eukaryote (PEUK) abundance includes the MEUK cells reported (e.g., MEUK are a subset of the PEUK cells with chlorophyll and acidic-vacuoles). Note that MEUK cells likely also include some HEUK with intact chlorophyll-bearing prey, but there is no way to definitively separate these cells from each other.
