Description
Phytoplankton abundances and cell counts for 45 stations in the Southern Bight of the North Sea between November 1973 and May 1974.The data are digitized from technical reports in the frame of the 4DEMON project. more

The dataset provides information on abundances and densities of phytoplankton species for 45 "Mechele" stations in the North Sea between November 1973 and 10 May 1974. Samples were taken from different depths. Additional information (count of living or dead cells) is given.
