Data for: Nutrient limitation of phytoplankton in Chesapeake Bay: Development of an empirical approach for water-quality management

This data archive contains data sets from the Chesapeake Bay Program's long-term tidal water-quality monitoring network. The data sets are organized in three folders:
(1) raw data sets for the period of 1990-2017, which were directly downloaded from the Chesapeake Bay Program Water Quality Database (https://datahub.chesapeakebay.net/);
(2) processed data for the period of 1990-2017, which were obtained based on manipulations described in the associated journal article (Zhang et al., 2020); and,
(3) aggregated data sets for various periods, which were prepared for analysis related to Goal 1 and Goal 2 in the associated journal article (Zhang et al., 2020).

本数据档案囊括了切萨皮克湾计划长期潮汐水质监测网络的数据集。数据集按照以下三个文件夹组织：
(1) 1990-2017年间的原始数据集，直接从切萨皮克湾计划水质数据库（https://datahub.chesapeakebay.net/）下载而来；
(2) 1990-2017年间的处理数据，基于相关期刊文章（张等，2020年）中描述的操作获得；
(3) 针对相关期刊文章（张等，2020年）中第1目标和第2目标的分析需求，准备的多时期汇总数据集。
