Nutrient concentration profiles from long term time series at station E1 in the Western English Channel from 2002 to 2012.

Results are reported for the analysis of water samples taken from the E1 long-term sampling station (50 02.6'N; 4 22.5'W) situated of the south-west coast of England, United Kingdom. The analyses are reported for Nitrate+Nitrite, Nitrite, Silicate and Phosphate concentrations. The data set begins in 2002, and since 2007 has been on a more regular almost fortnightly sampling protocol, however due to the more "offshore" nature of the site there are many sampling weeks lost due to bad weather. A classical picture is seen of generally summer nutrient depletion and with higher winter of the Nitrate, Silicate and Phosphate.
