Deciphering the Origin of Riverine Phytoplankton Using In-Situ Chlorophyll Sensors

We monitored suspended chlorophyll concentration and turbidity during 48 storm events at two locations with contrasting hydraulic storage caused by milldams between the sites. Our study provides 15-min interval data on river flow, temperature, turbidity and chlorophyll-a concentration for each one of these events. These data have undergone a QA/QC process in which fouling drift was corrected by applying an offset linear interpolation before and after cleaning, and a discrete analytical correction was also applied based on extracted-chlorophyll analysis from grab samples. The dataset is provided in a wide csv format with one parameter per column.
