Leverett-Glacier Subglacial Runoff metagenome
The Leverett Glacier (LG) drains a large (>600 km2) subglacial catchment of the Greenland Ice Sheet in South West Greenland. During the 2015 melt season, a series of LG runoff samples were filtered in order to study the microbial diversity of the subglacial environment, to help infer on the roles of microbes on subglacial biogeochemical processes beneath ice sheets.
