Morphological characterization of Microcystis colonies

This folder contains the primary data associated with the work:
Sinzato et al (2026) – How size and shape affect the vertical velocity of cyanobacterial colonies – https://doi.org/10.64898/2026.03.25.714148

Primary data is organized in the following folders, with the associated Figures:
– OCT: OCT scans (Fig 3A, 3B & S5) 
– Mucilage: Mucilage staining of Microcystis colonies (Fig 3C)
– NND: Confocal fluorescence microscopy of Microcystis colonies (Fig. 3D to 3F)
– Gas_vesicle: Gas Vesicle Content measurements: 
    i) Measured capillary meniscus displacement, 
    ii) fluorescence imaging of cells for diameter estimation, 
    iii) fluorescence imaging of cells for cell concentration estimation
