Hydrocarbon-degrading microbial communities are site-specific and their activity is limited by synergies in temperature and nutrient availability in surface ocean waters

Samples were collected from three different origins (two from the subtropical area and one from the Arctic ocean) were used for generating geochemical data, including microbial respiration rates and percentage hydrocarbon degraded during the incubation period. Following the incubation, 16s rRNA libr...

Description
Summary:Samples were collected from three different origins (two from the subtropical area and one from the Arctic ocean) were used for generating geochemical data, including microbial respiration rates and percentage hydrocarbon degraded during the incubation period. Following the incubation, 16s rRNA library was generated. Experiments were divided into multiple groups, with a systemic combination of different temperature and nutrients addition.
