  1. Given are the biogeographic provinces (SPSG: South Pacific Subtropical Gyre; PNEQ: Pacific North Equatorial Current; NPPF: North Pacific Polar Frontal Region), ID of the mesocosm experiments, station number, latitude, longitude, date of sampling, temperature, salinity, concentrations of chlorophyll a (Chl a), prokaryote cell abundance, heterotrophic prokaryotic production (HPP), bulk growth rate of the prokaryotic community and turnover rates of dissolved free amino acids (DFAA) at 20 m at stations, 2 and 14, the depths of sampling for the mesocosms, and at 60 m depth at station 7. At station 7, respective data of the depth of sampling, 75 m, are not available. For further details of provinces see Giebel et al. [33].
