"Samples were taken using a rosette of Niskin bottles, fixed with freshly
titrated paraformaldehyde (pH 7.4\\u20138.1, 0.1% final concentration), held in
the dark for 10 min, frozen in liquid nitrogen, and stored in a -80 deg C
freezer (CH0409 samples) or in liquid nitrogen (CH0510 samples) until
analysis. Preserved samples were analyzed by dual beam flow cytometry on a
modified Coulter-EPICS 753 flow cytometer (Binder et al. 1996). Samples were
chosen in random order, defrosted in a 30\\u00b0C water bath (just long enough
to melt, ~5 min), and stained with the DNA-specific stain Hoechst 33342 (0.5
ug mL-1 final concentration) (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, California) for a minimum
of 20 min in the dark. Prior to analysis, polystyrene fluorescent beads (0.5
um and 1.0 um diameter Flow CheckVR ; Polysciences, Washington, Pennsylvania),
were added to each sample, and used to normalize cellular light scatter and
red (chlorophyll-derived) fluorescence. Samples were run at an infusion rate
of 10 uL min-1 for 10\\u201350 min, depending on cell abundance within the
sample.
 
Mean red fluorescence and forward angle light scatter for each cell type in
each sample are linearized and normalized to 1.0 um and 0.5 um diameter beads
(see above), respectively. Thus the measurements are relative, and are only
meaningful for comparisons of cellular properties within this data set.";

"The intellectual merit of the research is to extend our understanding of the biology and ecology of marine picophytoplankton, a group of microbes that are responsible for a large proportion of the total photosynthetic carbon fixation that occurs in the world's oceans. The importance of picophytoplankton as the dominant primary producers in open-ocean ecosystems is well-established. However, the factors that regulate the distribution and abundance of these populations remain poorly understood. The investigators will explore the dynamics of top-down (grazer-mediated) regulation of picophytoplankton populations in a specific context: the maintenance of summertime subsurface maxima in the pico-cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus (but not Synechococcus) in the Sargasso Sea. This phenomenon represents a relatively simple and predictable model system within which to test hypotheses about the regulation of oceanic picophytoplankton in general.
Recent results suggest that despite their abundance, Prochlorococcus in the subsurface maxi-mum are growing (and being grazed) rather slowly, as compared to the smaller population at the surface. In order to understand the factors responsible for this apparent paradox, this project will use a combination of field and laboratory studies to characterize and compare the interactions between Prochorococcus and its protozoan grazers at these two contrasting depths, and in relation to Synechococcus, which forms no such sub-surface maximum.
The broader impacts include training for graduate and undergraduate students. In addition, given the significance of picophytoplankton as primary producers at the base of oceanic microbial food webs, the results of this project should inform efforts to describe and model the broader oceanic ecosystem, and ultimately to understand its role in the global carbon cycle.";

Using tabledap to Request Data and Graphs from Tabular Datasets

tabledap lets you request a data subset, a graph, or a map from a tabular dataset (for example, buoy data), via a specially formed URL. tabledap uses the OPeNDAP (external link) Data Access Protocol (DAP) (external link) and its selection constraints (external link).

The URL specifies what you want: the dataset, a description of the graph or the subset of the data, and the file type for the response.

Tabledap request URLs must be in the form
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/datasetID.fileType{?query}
For example,
https://coastwatch.pfeg.noaa.gov/erddap/tabledap/pmelTaoDySst.htmlTable?longitude,latitude,time,station,wmo_platform_code,T_25&time>=2015-05-23T12:00:00Z&time<=2015-05-31T12:00:00Z
Thus, the query is often a comma-separated list of desired variable names, followed by a collection of constraints (e.g., variable<value), each preceded by '&' (which is interpreted as "AND").

For details, see the tabledap Documentation.
