Phytoplankton and zooplankton samples were collected monthly along two cross shelf transects (CH-Line, B-Line) and one intermediate coastal station (SS) off Coffs Harbour (~30°S, 153°E), Eastern Australia, between May 2011 and September 2012. The exact sampling locations (coordinates) and times were recorded. Two of the sampling stations (CH3 and CH5) are also the sites of permanent IMOS moorings (CH070 and CH100, respectively). Two files are provided, one containing detailed data on phytoplankton (genus or species level where possible) and grouped zooplankton (copepods, larvae, ciliates), while the other reports on ciliate abundances (incl. tintinnids) only.
