title: 18S-based metabarcoding profile of plankton collected during and Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement Field trial
design: The Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement trial is described in Wynn-Edwards et al., 2025.  During the Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement field trial, water was continuously pumped into a containerised laboratory, and at discrete time points, aliquots were collected for molecular characterisation.  Plankton were collected on a 1 m filter.  RNA and DNA were collected from the same sample using  TRIzol reagents.
