marine metagenome
This sample (CB9_323) was collected during the Joint Ocean and Ice Studies expedition (2017) at station CB9 (latitudeN=77.9972 longitudeW=149.9302) 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 127 m targeting a salinity of 32.3 PSU (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.
