Figure 2. Observed and predicted alpha diversity of ciliate OTUs in the Tara Oceans dataset.

Figure 2

Observed alpha diversity was assessed by calculating exp(H) (a) and ciliate OTU richness (b) for 47 surface water samples (blue circles) and 36 DCM samples (green triangles). Local ciliate OTU richness as predicted by ACE (c) and ICE (d) was compared to the global predicted ciliate OTU richness.
