HOT dataset

We provide here a time series of bottle-based, discrete surface (top 25 m of the water column) particulate carbon concentrations (PC), HPLC-based chlorophyll-a concentrations  (Chl), heterotrophic bacteria counts (HBact), and adenosine-5’-triphosphate (ATP) concentrations collected nearly monthly from 2003-2018 at the Hawaii Ocean Time-series Station ALOHA (file: HOT_bottle_data.xlsx). A time series of high resolution (hourly) particulate beam attenuation coefficients are also made available collected at the same station from 2015-2020 (file: HOT_cp_data.xlsx). These data are presented and discussed in a Limnology and Oceanography Letters paper by Henderikx-Freitas, Bjorkman, Karl, and White titled "Constraining growth rates and the ratio of living to non-living particulate carbon using beam attenuation and adenosine-5’-triphosphate at Station ALOHA". See HOT_data_metadata.pdf for additional information.
