Notes from CSV file generated by Doug Mackie:
TDP (total dissolved phosphorus) see Hansen and Koroleff (1999) Determination of nutrients. In Methods of seawater analysis.
PO4 (phosphate) see Hansen and Koroleff (1999) Determination of nutrients. In Methods of seawater analysis.
DOP is TDP - PO4
PP (particulate phosphorus) see Solorzano and Sharp (1980) L and O 25 754-758
