title: Canada Basin 4 20m
organism: marine metagenome
description: This sample (CB4_20m) was collected during the Joint Ocean and Ice Studies expedition (2017) at station CB4 (latitudeN=75.0008 longitudeW=149.9945) on date/time=2017-09-24T10:53:54 using a Peristaltic pump. The sample material (saline water (ENVO:00002010) including plankton (ENVO:xxxxxxxx) was collected at a depth of 21 m targeting a depth of 20m (ENVO:xxxxxxxx) in the marine biome (ENVO:00000447). The sample was size-fractionated (0.22-3 micrometres) and stored in RNALater at -800C for later detection of prokaryote nucleic acid sequences by pyrosequencing methods and for later metagenomics analysis.
