Marine ecosystem shifts with deglacial sea-ice loss inferred from ancient DNA shotgun sequencing
Sea ice is a key factor for the functioning and services provided by polar marine ecosystems. However, ecosystem responses to sea-ice loss are largely unknown because time-series data are lacking. Here, we use shotgun metagenomics of marine sedimentary ancient DNA off Kamchatka (Western Bering Sea)...
