marine metagenome
This sample (TARA_N000001376) was collected during the Tara Oceans expedition (2009-2013) at station TARA_083 (latitudeN=-54.3739, longitudeE=-65.1342) on date/time=2010-12-16T11:58, using a PUMP (High Volume Peristaltic Pump). The sample material (particulate matter, including plankton (ENVO:xxxxxxxx)) was collected at a depth of 3-7 m, targeting a surface water layer (ENVO:00002042) in the marine biome (ENVO:00000447). The sample was size-fractionated (5-20 micrometres), and stored in liquid nitrogen for later detection of unicellular eukaryote (protist) nucleic acid sequences by pyrosequencing methods, and for later metagenomics/transcriptomics analysis. This sample has replicate sample(s): TARA_N000001377.
