marine metagenome
This sample (CB11b_Tmax) was collected during the Joint Ocean and Ice Studies expedition (2017) at station CB11b (latitudeN=79.9957 longitudeW=149.9767) on date/time=2017-09-19T14:01:44 using a Peristaltic pump. The sample material (saline water (ENVO:00002010) including plankton (ENVO:xxxxxxxx) was collected at a depth of 438 m targeting the depth of maximum temperature in the water column (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.
