    String summary "Laboratory experiments were carried out to characterize plankton infection dynamics and extracellular metabolites over an infection cycle in two parasite-host pairings. Data reported here are cell concentrations, percent of host infected, and bulk DOC concentrations measured daily over an infection cycle (four days) that coincides with collection of extracellular metabolites for analysis via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Separate experiments were performed for two strains of the parasite Amoebophyra sp. (4390 and 4401) that infected the same host dinoflagellate species, Scrippsiella acuminata. Metabolomics data collected from these experiments will be available on MetaboLights (MTBLS11219).";

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.

(easy) You can get data by using the dataset's Data Access Form or Subset form. They make the URL for you.
(easy) You can make a graph or map by using the dataset's Make A Graph form. It makes the URL for you.
(not hard) You can bypass the forms and get the data or make a graph or map by generating the URL by hand or with a computer program or script.

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.
