Dataset description

SOIREE Summary of Areal (mixed layer integrated) data
All areal (integrated to the base of the mixed layer) estimates for
chla, phaeopigments, cell numbers, algal carbon, and 14C carbon uptake.
Includes data on mean chl and phaeopigments, carbon/chl ratios, chl/cell
and growth rates.
