This dataset contains phytoplankton samples collected from Puget Sound and analyzed using a particle imaging analyzer (FlowCAM®). For more information see the King County marine phytoplankton webpage.
This specific dataset summarizes phytoplankton abundance and biovolume data by functional group. Additional datasets summarize abundance and biovolume data by:
• Size Class (all size classes in a sample in one line)
• Sample By Size Class (each sample size class in one line)
• Sample by Generic Functional Group
• Sample by Taxonomic Group
