Dataset for atmospheric transport of nutrients during a harmful algal bloom

The data presented in this article are related to the research article entitled “Atmospheric transport of nutrient matter during a harmful algal bloom”[1]. The data provides the harmful algal blooms event with an area greater than or equial to 1000km2 in the East China Sea during 2006. These data also provide the concentration of nutrients (nitrate, ammonium and FeⅡ) in atmosphere and their deposited flux in the East China Sea prior to the harmful algal bloom on May 3-8, 2006. They can be helpful for analyzing the source of nutrients causing the harmful algal blooms.
