Images of brine from sea ice near Nuuk, Greenland. (A) Fluorescence image of acridine orange–stained and DAPI-stained sample showing the prokaryotes that dominate numerically along with a eukaryote; the latter are predominantly photosynthetic diatoms but also include flagellates as shown. (B) Reconstructed amplitude image of a hologram of the brine, taken in the field. The image represents a single z plane at a single time point. The arrows show nonmotile organisms; the circle identifies a prokaryote clearly identified by its swimming (see Supplementary Video S3). (C) Depth-coded swimming trajectories of the motile organisms, which in these panels are one eukaryote (circular swimming pattern) and one prokaryote (apparently chemotaxing toward the eukaryote), in the same experiment as in (B). The color bar indicates depth into the page.
