Taxonomic and trophic diversity of microbial eukaryotic plankton in water masses exiting an Arctic  outflow gateway
Arctic response to climate warming and changes in the oceanographic seascape beneath the surface underlying causes and potential consequences, from individual species to entire ecosystems. In this study we sampled microbial eukaryotic diversity starting from the exit of the Lincoln Sea source of the pan-arctic restricted or endemic Arctic microbial taxa and communities. We compared these communities to those in mid Baffin Bay and describe the connectivity of water masses in terms of biological persistence.
