Summer Microzooplankton in the Bering Sea

This dataset contains Micro-zooplankton (MZ) grazing on phytoplankton estimations during the summer cruise (HLY0803) at 21 stations in the SouthEastern (SE) Bering Sea. A modified 2-point dilution method (Landry 1993, Strom et al. 2006, Strom and Fredrickson 2008) was used to estimate phytoplankton growth, MZ grazing and the fraction of phytoplankton daily production removed by MZ grazing. Chlorophyll was measured as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass. Water samples for the determination of MZ abundance, biomass and composition were collected in association with the dilution experiments and at additional selected stations and preserved with 10% (final concentration) acid Lugol's solution in amber glass bottles.

本数据集包含采集自白令海东南部（SE）21个站位的夏季航次（HLY0803）中微型浮游动物（Micro-zooplankton, MZ）摄食浮游植物的相关估算数据。本研究采用改进的两点稀释法（Landry 1993、Strom等2006、Strom与Fredrickson 2008），对浮游植物生长速率、微型浮游动物摄食强度以及微型浮游动物摄食移除的浮游植物日产量占比进行了估算。以叶绿素（Chlorophyll）作为浮游植物生物量的替代指标开展测定。用于测定微型浮游动物丰度、生物量与群落组成的水样，同步采集于稀释实验及额外选定的站位，随后以终浓度为10%的酸性卢戈氏液（acid Lugol's solution）保存于棕色玻璃瓶中。
