      Abstract: 
          On a research cruise in the Northern Gulf of Mexico in May 2013, samples containing natural plankton 
          assemblages were collected from 5 stations and subjected to on-board incubations containing different 
          concentrations of crude oil (1, 5 and 25 μL L-1), Corexit 9500 dispersant (0.05, 0.25 and 1.25 μL L-1) and 
          dispersant-treated oil (1, 5 and 25 μL L-1). Each experiment (1 per station) consisted of 6 control bottles 
          (absence of pollutants) and duplicated bottles for each experimental treatment concentration (total 
          bottles=24). At the start of the exposure experiments, three additional bottles (initials) were fixed with 1 
          percent Lugol's solution to determine the initial plankton community abundance and composition in each 
          studied site. This data set contains the cell abundances of ciliates, dinoflagellates, diatoms, and 
          nanoflagellates and the concentrations and growth rates of bloom-forming dinoflagellates and picoplankton 
          from each of the experiments.
      Purpose: 
          To determine whether the presence of oil and/or dispersant creates conditions that may promote harmful algal 
          bloom formation
