Metadata dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/ya3pzu accessed via GBIF.org on 2024-10-14.Description
Microbial dataset containing sequenced genes (ureC gene) from Thaumarchaeota from the Beaufort Sea (Arctic) and the Amundsen Sea (Antarctica), as well as a metagenome (454 pyrosequencing) the Beaufort Sea.Sampling Description
Study Extent
Water samples were collected near the surface and in deeper halocline waters from the Arctic Southeast Beaufort Sea during the overwintering CFL cruise and in the upper 500 m from the Antarctic Amundsen and Ross seas during the summer in the Oden Southern Ocean cruise.Sampling
Samples were collected by using a ship-deployed rosette for open water sampling and through the ship’s internal moon pool for winter ice-covered sampling.Method steps
