Sample information for 16S and 18S V4 amplicon sequencing of microbial communities in sinking particles and water column samples collected during R/V Atlantic Explorer cruises AE1718 and AE1809 in 2017 and 2018 at BATS in Bermuda

Abstract

Sample information for 16S and 18S V4 amplicon sequencing of phytodetrital aggregates, fecal aggregates, and water column at the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site. Particles were collected on the monthly sampling cruises affiliated with the BATS in fall 2017 (AE1718) and spring 2018 (AE1809) on the R/V Atlantic Explorer. These data were published in Neuer et al. (2021).

Genetic sequences are available at the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) under BioProject PRJNA675293.
