Total and size-fractionated Chlorophyll a, species and counts of phytoplankton and ice algae in summer 2010 in the Chukchi Sea

Phytoplankton and ice algae samples were collected in July and August 2010 in the Chukchi Sea. Total and size-fractionated chlorophylla, algal species and counts were measured. The data were used to interpret the algal community structure associated with the algal bloom and nutrient drawdown in the Chukchi Sea.
