Abstract
The photosynthetic performance of marine phytoplankton varies in response to a variety of factors, environmental and
taxonomic. One of the aims of the MArine primary Production: model Parameters from Space (MAPPS) project of the European
Space Agency is to assemble a global database of photosynthesis–irradiance (P-E) parameters from a range
of oceanographic regimes as an aid to examining the basin-scale variability in the photophysiological response of marine
phytoplankton and to use this information to improve the assignment of P-E parameters in the estimation
of global marine primary production using satellite data. The MAPPS P-E database, which consists of over
5000 P-E experiments, provides information on the spatio-temporal variability in the two
P-E parameters (the assimilation number, PmB, and the initial slope, αB, where the
superscripts B indicate normalisation to concentration of chlorophyll) that are fundamental inputs for models
(satellite-based and otherwise) of marine primary production that use chlorophyll as the state variable. Quality-control
measures consisted of removing samples with abnormally high parameter values and flags were added to denote whether the
spectral quality of the incubator lamp was used to calculate a broad-band value of αB. The MAPPS database
provides a photophysiological data set that is unprecedented in number of observations and in spatial coverage. The
database will be useful to a variety of research communities, including marine ecologists, biogeochemical modellers,
remote-sensing scientists and algal physiologists. The compiled data are available at https://doi.org/10.1594/PANGAEA.874087 (Bouman
et al., 2017).
