Figure 3

Relative abundance distribution of the dominant operational taxonomic units (OTUs) (97% similarity). A, B, C, D, and E represent the five sediment locations, which were 0, 125, 250, 375, and 500 m from the water-land junction, respectively. Numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 represent the six depth strata sampled per transect: 0–5, 5–10, 10–20, 20–30, 30–60, and 60–100 cm. The relative abundances of each OTU were normalized to have a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 100%. The percent abundances of dominant genera in each location are indicated by shading: percentages close to 13 are indicated in black, and those close to 0 are in gray. The actual percentages of a, b, and c are 24, 14, and 19%, respectively.
