Gap-filled phytoplankton functional types (PFT) dataset for the Atlantic Ocean along corridor of the RV Polarstern PS113 expedition using DINEOF and DINCAE gap-filling methods

These datasets provide gap-filled satellite products of total chlorophyll-a and the chlorophyll-a concentration of five major phytoplankton functional types (PFTs) in the Atlantic Ocean along a corridor of the RV Polarstern PS113 expedition from May 10 to June 9, 2018. The datasets were reconstructed in several areas using two well-established gap-filling methods: Data Interpolating Empirical Orthogonal Functions (DINEOF) and Data-Interpolating Convolutional Auto-Encoder (DINCAE). The five PFTs included are diatoms, dinoflagellates, haptophytes, green algae, and prokaryotic phytoplankton, labelled in the dataset as DIATO, DINO, HAPTO, GREEN, and PROKAR, respectively. Total Chlorophyll-a is labelled as CHL in the dataset.
