Marine Water Column Samples Targeted loci environmental

Surface water samples collected from locations within Mobile Bay out into the northern Gulf of Mexico shelf region off the coast of Alabama for examination of microbial eukaryotes. 20-24 L water samples were collected bi-monthly from July 2009- Dec 2011, prefiltered through a 150um mesh and eukaryotic fraction was collected on a 0.7um glass fiber filter. This data was used to explore spatial and temporal variation as well as impact of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill on this community.本数据集采集了覆盖莫比尔湾（Mobile Bay）至阿拉巴马州沿岸外墨西哥湾北部陆架区域的地表水样本，用于微生物真核生物（microbial eukaryotes）的相关研究。2009年7月至2011年12月期间，每两月采集一次20至24升的水样，先经150微米（150um）滤网预过滤，再通过0.7微米（0.7um）玻璃纤维滤膜收集真核生物组分。该数据集被用于探究该微生物群落的时空变异特征，以及深水地平线漏油事故（Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill）对其产生的影响。
