Group-specific phytoplankton carbon fixation rate in the southwest Pacific Ocean

Flow cytometry sorted populations of 1) marine Synechococcus, 2) photosynthetic picoeukaryotes and 3) photosynthetic nanoeukaryotes. Seawater samples were collected during TAN1810 oceanography campaign (21st October - 21st November 2018) at Southwest Pacific Ocean, near the Chatham Rise (New Zealand). There are three different sample types collected: 1) Initial- Water samples were fixed and sorted at time of collection 2) Light - water samples were spiked with radioactively labelled bicarbonate and incubated in-situ. Three replicates per station labelled vials A, B, C. 3) Dark - water samples were spiked with radioactively labelled bicarbonate and incubated in the dark.
