Taxonomic composition of microbial communities in coastal Arctic sediments ...
The taxonomic composition of microbial communities was examined in two sediment cores taken off the coast of Alaska in the Beaufort Sea in 2009. One of the cores (PC10) had low methane concentrations while the deep depths of the other core (PC12) had high concentrations. To examine community composi...
