SPRUCE Deep Peat Heat (DPH) Metagenomes for Peat Samples Collected June 2015

This data set provides links to the results of metagenomic analyses of 38 peat core samples collected on 16 June 2015 from SPRUCE experiment treatment plots after approximately one year of belowground heating. These metagenomes are archived in the U.S. Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (DOE JGI) Integrated Microbial Genomes (IMG) system and are available at the accession numbers provided below and in the accompanying inventory file. This work was done in collaboration with the DOE Joint Genome Institute (JGI) study that is targeting understanding the microbial metagenomes of “fungal, bacterial, and archaeal communities mediating C cycling and trace gas flux in peatland ecosystems subject to climate change” (Proposal ID: 1445). The SPRUCE experiment site is an ombrotrophic bog forest in northern Minnesota, 40 km north of Grand Rapids, in the USDA Forest Service Marcell Experimental Forest (MEF).
