"Dilution Experiments: For an overview of the purpose and interpretation of
dilution experiments see Landry (1993) and Worden & Binder (2003). Seawater
samples were taken with Go-Flo bottles suspended on non-metallic cable. A
portion of this water was gravity-filtered through 0.2 um pore-size capsule
filters (Whatman Polycap 36 TC), and appropriate volumes of filtered and
unfiltered seawater were added to 500 ml polycarbonate bottles to achieve the
indicated dilutions. Time-0 (T0) samples were removed from each bottle and
preserved for later flow cytometric analysis as described below. Incubation
bottles were then distributed to nylon mesh bags and resuspended in the water
column at the depths indicated. After 24 hours, the bottles were recovered and
sampled for time-final (TF) counts. All sampling gear, filters, and incubation
bottles were acid-washed per Fitzwater et al. (1982). The dates, times, and
locations of the experiments were as follows:

Flow Cytometric Cell Counts: Samples were 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 \\u201180 deg C freezer
(CH0409 samples) or in liquid nitrogen (CH0510 samples) until analysis.
Preserved samples were analyzed by flow cytometry on a modified Coulter-EPICS
753 flow cytometer (Binder et al. 1996). Samples were chosen in random order
and defrosted in a 30 deg C water bath (just long enough to melt, ~5 min).
Prior to analysis, polystyrene fluorescent beads (Flow Check\\u00ae 0.494 um
\\u201cBB\\u201d; Polysicences Inc., Washington, PA, USA), were added to each
sample, and used to normalize cellular light scatter and fluorescence. Samples
were typically run at an infusion rate of 20 uL min-1 for 1 to 20 min,
depending on cell abundance within the sample. A minimum of 1,000
Prochlorococcus cells were analyzed, except for samples in which low cell
concentrations made this impractical. Final cell concentrations tabulated here
were calculated from 1-7 replicate counts (Count.n).";

"Flow cytometers (FC or FCM) are automated instruments that quantitate properties of single cells, one cell at a time. They can measure cell size, cell granularity, the amounts of cell components such as total DNA, newly synthesized DNA, gene expression as the amount messenger RNA for a particular gene, amounts of specific surface receptors, amounts of intracellular proteins, or transient signalling events in living cells.

String projects_0_description
"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.";

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").
