Time and location of sampling 22º45’, 158º 00’ W Oct 2002 – Dec 2003
Vertical profiles of physico-chemical parameters at the ALOHA Station
Sequencing methodology • BidirectionalDNA sequencing of fosmid clones (~ 10,000 sequences per depth) • ~ 64 Mbpof DNA sequence total Metagenome Statistics
Questions: Differences in the environmental parameters microbial community composition? Dominant populations? Functional variations ? Abundance profile differences?
