SmartBuoy Marine Observational Network - UK Waters Phytoplankton Data 2001-2017

This dataset consists of analysed phytoplankton data from the years 2001-2017
inclusive collected in UK waters from the SmartBuoy moorings at Celtic Deep,
Dowsing, Gabbard/West Gabbard/WestGabbard2, Warp and Liverpool Bay using WMS
and EDU automated water samplers. SmartBuoys consist of a 4 meter tall
stainless steel frame with a fibreglass toroid for buoyancy. Instruments are
attached at a nominal 1 meter depth to the frame. The water samplers collect
into pre-spiked bags containing acidified Lugols Iodine on a pre-determined
cycle over the course of a deployment. Following recovery these samples were
analysed for a full community of phytoplankton species using the Utermohl
method on high-power inverted microscopes. Phytoplankton cell counts are
abundance values reported in Cells per Litre.

本数据集包含对2001至2017年（含）期间在英国水域采集的浮游植物数据进行分析，这些数据来源于位于凯尔特深水区、道辛、加巴德/西加巴德/西加巴德2、沃普和利物浦湾的智能浮标系泊点，使用WMS和EDU自动化水样采集器收集。智能浮标由一个4米高的不锈钢框架和用于浮力的玻璃纤维环构成。仪器固定在框架上的标称1米深度处。水样采集器按照预定周期将水样收集至预先酸化的卢戈氏碘化钾溶液浸泡的采样袋中。部署回收后，这些样品使用高倍倒置显微镜上的乌特莫尔方法对浮游植物群落的所有物种进行全面分析。浮游植物细胞计数以每升细胞数的形式报告其丰度值。
