The 4 eukaryotic-enriched size fractions 0.8–5 μm, 5–20 μm, 20–180 μm, and 180–2,000 μm were pooled for a total of n = 2,739 OTU barcodes in SUR and DCM depths (see S1 Data for raw values). The basemap was generated from the Natural Earth data (http://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/50m-physical-vectors/); Natural Earth—All maps are public domain (http://www.naturalearthdata.com/about/terms-of-use/). DCM, deep-chlorophyll maximum; OTU, operational taxonomic unit; SUR, surface.
