This data set contains the concentrations of chlorohyll a (chla) and the phytoplankton fuctional types from the CTD stations during PS 92, which were calculated from marker pigment ratios using the CHEMTAX program (Mackey et al, 1996).Pigment ratios were constrained as suggested by Higgins et al. (2011) based on microscopic examination of representative samples during the cruise, and the input matrix published by Fragoso et al. (2016) was applied. The resulting phytoplankotn group composition is represented in chl a concentrations. From the same bottles various trace gases were measured as carbon monoxide (CO) and the Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) as Dimethyl sulphide (DMS), methanethiol (MeSH) and isoprene.
