Phytoplankton pigment data collected on the BROKE voyage of the Aurora Australis, 1995-1996

These are phytoplankton pigment datasets collected on the BROKE voyage of the Aurora Australis during the 1995-1996 summer season. The readme file in the data download states:

Data supplied by Dr Simon Wright. Details phytoplankton pigment data from BROKE.

"BROKEPIGDBase.xls
Contains 5 worksheets.
'Notes' repeats the information presented here.
'Key' describes the column headings, chemical names.
'Raw_Data' is the exact spreadsheet receieved from Dr Wright.
'Standard_sample_source' contains all the phyto-chemical data as taken from the CTD programme.
'Non_standard_sample_source' contains phyto-chemical data that seems to have been collected opportunistically, to test some assumptions. The details of the locations of the opportunistic samples are detailed in the column 'Sample_source'.

Note- it is unsure whether the numbers in the CTD column describe the Station Number. This has to be verified.

Converted into a MS Access database- 'BROKE_phytoplankton.mdb' by Natalie Kelly.
This database contains 3 tables. One is a description of the column names, chemical etc. The other two contain both the Standard and Non-Standard Sample source phytochemical data.

本数据集为1995-1996夏季期间，在"南极光号"（Aurora Australis）科考船的BROKE航次中采集的浮游植物色素数据集。数据下载包中的自述文件说明如下：

本数据集由西蒙·赖特（Simon Wright）博士提供，内容为BROKE航次的浮游植物色素数据。

文件"BROKEPIGDBase.xls"包含5个工作表：
'Notes（说明）'重复本自述文件中的相关信息；
'Key（字段说明）'对各列标题及化学物质名称进行解释；
'Raw_Data（原始数据）'为直接从赖特博士处获取的原始电子表格内容；
'Standard_sample_source（标准样本源）'包含所有来自CTD（温盐深剖面仪，Conductivity, Temperature, Depth）项目的浮游植物化学数据；
'Non_standard_sample_source（非标准样本源）'包含为验证某些假设而临时采集的浮游植物化学数据，此类临时采集样本的位置详情已在'Sample_source（样本来源）'列中注明。

注意：暂无法确认CTD列中的数值是否代表站位编号，有待进一步核实。

娜塔莉·凯利（Natalie Kelly）已将上述数据转换为Microsoft Access数据库文件"BROKE_phytoplankton.mdb"。该数据库包含3张数据表：其中1张用于说明列名、化学物质等相关信息，另外2张则分别存储标准样本源与非标准样本源的浮游植物化学数据。
