LDG across Size and Depth, Related to Figures 2B–2D

For the whole prokaryotic (16S miTags, 0.22-3 μm, and 16S OTUs, 0.2 μm for bathypelagic (BAT)) and eukaryotic communities (18S OTUs, 0.8-2000, 20-180 and 180-2000 μm; imaging, > 300 and > 680 μm) at different depths (SRF: surface, < 5 m; DCM: deep chlorophyll maximum, 17-188 m, and MES: mesopelagic, > 200 m, BAT: bathypelagic, > 4000 m, INT: integrative, depth from 500 m depth to the surface). Non-significant GAMs are denoted with “NS.” See Figure S4 legend for more information on the plot. Note that the particular trend for the regent net, i.e., Imaging | 680 μm might be due to undersampling of small zooplankton.
