Fragmentation and aggregation of cyanobacterial colonies under a cone and plate shear

Brief description of experimental setup: Colonies of the cyanobacteria Microcystis in liquid medium BG-11 are place and a cone-and-plate shear at various values of energy dissipation rate and total biovolume fraction. Brightfield microscopy is perfomed simulanoeusly to the shear flow thorugh the transparente lower plate. Files: rawimages.zip: Raw images (.tiff) for the dataset Fragmentation-eps-5.8m2/s3-phi100ppm. Pixel resolution is 1.63 um/px. features.zip : Processed data from raw images for all data sets are present. Title inform initial distribution ("Bre" = large colonies; "Agg" = single cells), nominal shear rate and total biovolume fraction. Csv files contain background image, detected features using a routine in scikit-image scikit-image and initial parameters.
