log in | [BATS HPLC pigments] - HPLC and fluorometric derived phytoplankton pigment concentrations from seawater collected at the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site from October 1988 through December 2023 (Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study) | Data presented here contain HPLC derived phytoplankton pigments and fluorometric chlorophyll-a from the BATS site for years 1988 to 2023. Water samples are typically collected from 12 depths in the upper 250 meters of the water column, and then filtered under low vacuum through a 25mm GF/F filter. The filter is then flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80 degrees C. Shoreside, analysis is performed on an HPLC using a method modified by Dr. R. Bidigare from the Wright et al. (1991) procedure. This method identifies the pigments chlorophyll-c3, chlorophyll-c2, peridinin, 19'-butanoyloxyfucoxanthin, fucoxanthin, 19'-hexanoyloxyfucoxanthin, prasinoxanthin, diadinoxanthin, alloxanthin, diatoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin, chlorophyll-b, chlorophyll-a, divinyl chlorophyllide-a, alpha and beta carotene. Additionally, chlorophyll-a and phaeopigments are analyzed using a fluorometric assay.\n\ncdm_data_type = Other\nVARIABLES:\nID (unitless)\ntime (Iso_datetime_utc, seconds since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z)\nVessel (unitless)\nlatitude (degrees_north)\nlongitude (degrees_east)\nCruise_type (unitless)\nCruise_num (unitless)\nCast (unitless)\nCast_type (unitless)\nBottle_number (unitless)\nQF_Niskin_GoFlo (uniteless)\ndepth (m)\nQF_depth (unitless)\np1 (nanograms per kilogram (ng/kg))\nQF_p1 (unitless)\np2 (nanograms per kilogram (ng/kg))\nQF_p2 (unitless)\np3 (nanograms per kilogram (ng/kg))\n...
