The data-sets comes from three locations representative of three different marine ecosystems: Fjord (Chilean Patagonia), Ny-Ålesund (Arctic) and Mediterranean (Crete). It contains chemical and biological data collected in three mesocosm and four microcosm experiments conducted in the spring - summer period, in which the physico-chemical (pH, Carbon) and biological (grazing) conditions were altered to represent potential future climate change scenarios. The data-sets contains measurements in: carbonate chemistry, macro- and micro-nutrients concentrations, primary production, phytoplankton taxonomy, virus abundance, bacterial production, bacterial abundance, Zoo- and microzoo-plankton abundance, grazing rates for different taxonomic groups.
