microbial succession in anticyclonic eddies
Ocean eddies play a key role in global biogeochemical cycles by redistributing nutrients and organic matter. As anticyclonic eddies age, they evolve into stable, distinct habitats that can select for specialized microbial communities. Here, we present 16S, 18S and nifH metabarcoding data from a young and a mature anticyclonic eddy in the Canary Eddy Corridor.
