Structure and function of high Arctic pelagic, particle-associated and benthic bacterial communities ...
Arctic marine microbes are affected by environmental changes that may ultimately influence their functions in carbon cycling. Here, we investigated in concert the structure and enzymatic activities of pelagic, particle-associated and benthic bacterial communities in the central Arctic Ocean, and use...

Arctic marine microbes are affected by environmental changes that may ultimately influence their functions in carbon cycling.

In addition to community compositional differences, regional and depth-related patterns in enzymatic activities were observed.
