Nansen Legacy and Arctic PRIZE sequential sediment trap protist and zooplankton data, collected north of Svalbard from October 2017 to October 2018

This dataset includes taxonomy and daily vertical export rates of planktonic protist cells, planktonic protist carbon (PPC), and zooplankton abundance and biomass fluxes. Samples were collected from long-term sediment traps deployed on moorings north and northeast of Svalbard from October 2017 to October 2018, as part of the Nansen Legacy (UiT, NO) and Arctic PRIZE (SAMS, UK).
