Concentrations of mercury forms and ancillary parameters in size fractionated plankton samples and in water collected during 2014 from Long Island Sound and the adjacent shelf

Concentrations of mercury forms and ancillary parameters were investigated in size fractionated plankton samples and in water from Long Island Sound and the adjacent shelf. Samples were collected in three separate seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall) during 2014 to research the temporal trophic transfer dynamics of mercury and methylmercury into zooplankton and phytoplankton.本数据集针对长岛海湾（Long Island Sound）及其邻近陆架的分级粒径浮游生物样品与水体，对汞形态浓度及辅助参数开展了调查分析。样品于2014年的春、夏、秋三个独立季节采集，旨在探究汞与甲基汞向浮游动物、浮游植物的时间维度营养传递动力学特征。
