Microbial Diversity in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean and Patagonian Freshwater Bodies

Dataset homepage

Citation

MGnify (2019). Microbial Diversity in the Southwest Atlantic Ocean and Patagonian Freshwater Bodies. Sampling event dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/xgdqeb accessed via GBIF.org on 2023-02-04.

Description

The Southwest Atlantic Ocean (SAO) has one of the largest and most productive continental shelves of the World, notwithstanding which microbiological studies of this region are rather scarce. Likewise, the majority of Continental Patagonian (CP) lakes, rivers and other water bodies remain as pristine as microbiologically unstudied. This project constitutes an initiative aimed to contribute to surveying, systematizing and understanding the dynamics (i.e. ecology and evolution) of microbial communities from this region.
