title: Metagenomic sequencing library of surface sediment of Changjiang estuary
design: The surface sediment sample of the CJE metagenome was collected from Changjiang estuary during a cruise on 16 August 2016. The sample was taken from the water bed, sealed immediately in a 50-ml tube and stored in liquid nitrogen on board. After transportation to the laboratory, 10 g wet sediments were used for DNA extraction.
