We determined the distribution and activity of the major prokaryotic groups (Bacteria, Cren-, and Euryarchaeota) inhabiting the deep water masses of the North Atlantic by following the path of the North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) from its formation in the Greenland-Iceland-Norwegian (GIN) Sea along its two major branches covering approximately the first 50 yr of the NADW in the oceanic conveyor belt system. The relative abundance of Eury- and Crenarchaeota, assessed by catalyzed reporter deposition-fluorescence in situ hybridization (CARD-FISH), was significantly higher in the western branch (17 % and 24 % of 49,69-diamidino-2phenylindole (DAPI)-stained cells, respectively) than in the eastern (9 % and 17%, respectively) branch of the NADW.
