Plumes and Blooms: phytoplankton pigment concentration

The data set provided here is a curated collection of phytoplankton pigment observations collected from the discrete seawater bottle samples by the Plumes and Blooms program (PnB). The curated data set was used to determine the dominant seasonal to multi-decadal patterns and forcings of phytoplankton groups in the Santa Barbara Channel, CA. The data included here encompass the PnB cruises since Nov 2005.
