Samples derived from Antarctica Peninsula sediments from 8 to 15m depth.
Sediment samples were collected at different depths in four different sites around the Antarctic Peninsula, Rothera. Sampled areas comprised the Islands, Hangar Cove, South Cove and Rothera Point. Triplicates from each site were sampled using a standard corer methodology and all samples were immediately fixed in 500 ml storage pots containing 300 ml of DESS (20% DMSO and 0.25 M disodium EDTA, saturated with NaCl, pH 8.0) (Yoder et al., 2006).
