Environmental DNA sequencing of archaeal and bacterial 16S rRNA genes was conducted on samples from multiple evaporite sediment layers of the surface salt crust. Our results show that at the time of sampling (September 2016), BSF hosted a robust microbial community dominated by diverse Halobacteriaceae and Salinibacter species. Desulfuromonadales from GR-WP33-58 are also abundant in all samples. We identified taxonomic groups enriched in each layer of the salt crust sediment and revealed that the upper gypsum sediment layer found immediately under the uppermost surface halite contains a robust microbial community. We found an increased presence of Thermoplasmatales, Nanohaloarchaeota, Woesearchaeota, Acetothermia, Halanaerobium, Parcubacteria, Planctomycetes, Clostridia, Gemmatimonadetes, Marinilabiaceae and other Bacteroidetes in this upper gypsum layer. This study provides insight into the diversity, spatial heterogeneity, and geologic context of a surprisingly complex microbial ecosystem within this macroscopically-sterile landscape.</p><p>PIs: Brenda Bowen, William Brazelton
