Sediment metagenomes from the southern Baltic Sea
This data set includes sediment metagenomes from three sampling sites in the brackish southern Baltic Sea. Silty sediments were sampled at Fehmarn Belt and RÃ¸nne Bank during the cruises EMB238 with RV Elisabeth Mann Borgese and AL470 with RV Alkor, respectively. Sandy sediments were sampled at Odra Bank during the cruise EMB267. Sediments were sampled with a multicorer. The DNA for metagenomic sequencing was extracted from samples taken at five to six discrete depth intervals within the top 20 cm of the cores.
