By deploying an automated flow cytometer at a coastal monitoring station in France, we tracked phytoplankton changes every 2 h during spring (2021 and 2022) and summer (2022). Our study revealed distinct seasonal shifts, e.g., with diatoms and haptophytes in spring. Rare weather events rapidly altered community composition. We found that most variability occurred on short timescales, underscoring the importance of high-frequency monitoring for understanding marine phytoplankton dynamics.

This article presents a 45-year data series (1978–2023) acquired in the South Bight of the North Sea. It provides an overview of the main statistical characteristics of time series (hydrological parameters and plankton species), including long-term trends and shift analysis. The aim of this paper is to make this valuable dataset available to help decipher the local and global influences of anthropogenic activities in a world increasingly affected by climate change.

Our research highlights the concerning impact of rising carbon dioxide levels on coastal areas. To better understand these changes, we've established an observation network in France. By deploying pH sensors and other monitoring equipment at key coastal sites, we're gaining valuable insights into how various factors, such as freshwater inputs, tides, temperature, and biological processes, influence ocean pH.

In the coastal northeastern Atlantic and for three subregions (the English Channel, Bay of Brest and Bay of Biscay) over the period 1982–2022, marine heatwaves are more frequent and longer and extend over larger areas, while the opposite is seen for marine cold spells. This result is obtained with both in situ and satellite datasets, although the satellite dataset underestimates the amplitude of these extremes.

The Suivi Regional des Nutriments (SRN) data set includes long-term time series on marine phytoplankton and physicochemical measures in the eastern English Channel and the Southern Bight of the North Sea. These data sets should be useful for comparing contrasted coastal marine ecosystems to further knowledge about the direct and indirect effects of human pressures and environmental changes on ecosystem structure and function, including eutrophication and harmful algal bloom issues.

A compiled set of in situ data is vital to evaluate the quality of ocean-colour satellite data records. Here we describe the global compilation of bio-optical in situ data (spanning from 1997 to 2021) used for the validation of the ocean-colour products from the ESA Ocean Colour Climate Change Initiative (OC-CCI). The compilation merges and harmonizes several in situ data sources into a simple format that could be used directly for the evaluation of satellite-derived ocean-colour data.

This paper aims to understand interannual changes in the initiation of the phytoplankton growing period (IPGP) in the current context of global climate changes over the last 20 years. An important variability in the timing of the IPGP is observed with a trend towards a later IPGP during this last decade. The role and the impact of extreme events (cold spells, floods, and wind burst) on the IPGP is also detailed.

Short summary
This article describes a long-term (2004–2022) dataset from an in situ instrumented station located in the eastern English Channel and belonging to the COAST-HF network (ILICO). It provides high temporal resolution (sub-hourly) oceanographic and meteorological measurements. The MAREL Carnot dataset can be used to conduct research in marine ecology, oceanography, and data science. It was utilized to characterize recurrent, rare, and extreme events in the coastal area.
