One focus of this study was to detect local coherences between deep-sea benthic bacterial community patterns and an ice-edge related input of organic material (Fram Strait, Arctic Ocean) as well as physical disturbances (Ardencaple Canyon, Greenland Sea). Such large-scale patterns along a depth-depe...
