Concentrations of phytoplankton, chlorophyll, POC, dry weight measurements and abiotic data in the surface water of Gazi creek (Kenya) sampled in August 1989

Data on concentrations of chlorophyll, phytoplankton, POC and dry weight measurements during three 24h-cycli at Gazi Creek in August 1989. Additionally tide, temperature, salinity and pH were measured. The data were digitized by VLIZ from the original report: Aernaudts, H. (1990). Seston in mangrove ecosysteem (Gazi, Kenia) = Seston in a mangrove ecosystem (Gazi, Kenya). MSc Thesis. VUB: Brussel. 52 pp.
