Comparison of different sample types using different primers and platforms

Ocean-atmosphere microbial transport mechanisms are not well understood. Here, we investigate bacterial exchange processes through the sea surface microlayer using genomic and...

In industrialized countries, non-communicable diseases have been increasing in prevalence since the middle of the 20th century. While the causal mechanisms remain poorly...

In this study we aim to explore the dispersal of viruses and microbes from the air-sea interface to aerosols and rain.

This is the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition aerosol and source sample DNA fastq files for samples collected in the...

This BioProject contains the raw sequences for the study of snow and air microbial communities from Antarctic Peninsula bases using 16S amplicon sequencing.

The diversity and composition of bacterial community in marine aerosols on the Yellow Sea , East China Sea and Northwest Pacific Ocean in autumn was investigated based on the...

Aerobic enrichment media from Bioluminiscent Bay, La Parguera, Puerto Rico - A23 P2 metagenome

Comparison of different sample types using different primers and platforms

International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 357 successfully cored an east-west transect across the southern wall of Atlantis Massif on the western flank of the...

Survey of airborne microbes over the World's oceans. Malaspina 2010 Expedition

Air samples at a global scale were sequenced (metagenomic sequencing)

Microorganisms are ubiquitous and highly diverse in the atmosphere. Despite airborne bacteria over the Southern Ocean (SO) potentially impact to ecology in isolated Antarctica...

A comprehensive assessment of fungal communities in various habitats from Antarctica: diversity, distribution, and potential pathogens

The Arctic is a hot spot for climate change with potentially large consequences on a global scale. Aerosols, including bioaerosols, are important players in regulating the heat...

In this study we map microbial distributions within a small, natural watershed in order to examine source-sink dynamics of symbiotic microbes at the landscape scale, among...

Deserts are known to be major sources of dust, which is transported as aerosols across regional and even transcontinental scales. Dust has been shown to have negative effects on...

Comparative studies of microbial communities occupying different body sites in wild vertebrates are scarce, but they are crucial for advancing our understanding of the...

Samples presented at EMP conference Shenzhen, China, June 2011. Includes water, soil, insects, air, contaminated water

Microbial communities at the ocean-atmosphere interface were collected along a 14,400 km transect from the polar circle to the equator in the North Atlantic Ocean. Communities...
