Benthic microbe metagenome sequences (DP1.20279.001)

This data product contains the primary field and quality-controlled laboratory metadata and minimally processed sequence data from NEON's benthic microbial shotgun metagenomics sequencing. For details, see the user guide, protocols, and science design listed in the Documentation section in this data product's details webpage. Queries for the basic data product package will return metadata tables that include field observations and measurements, laboratory methods, and results from DNA extraction, sample preparation, and sequencing for samples from the specified sites and within the specified date range. Queries for the expanded package will also include a table containing links to the raw sequence data files. Latency: The expected time from data and/or sample collection in the field to data publication is as follows, for each of the data tables (in days) in the downloaded data package. See the Data Product User Guide for more information. amb_fieldParent: 60 mms_benthicMetagenomeDnaExtraction: 240 mms_benthicMetagenomeSequencing: 240 mms_benthicRawDataFiles: 240
