PI: EmersonDEB 9972099 The goal of this project is to carry out a comprehensive biotic survey of the prokaryotic, fungal, and protistan life inhabiting surficial sediments in Mid-Atlantic estuarine environments. These environments are highly productive and are considered key habitats for the maintenance of healthy coastal marine ecosystems; however, due to their close proximity to areas of coastal development, they are often subject to human encroachment. This project will utilize a combined molecular and cultural analysis of RNA and DNA extracted from environmental samples and then identify important groups of microbes. The primary experimental sampling site will be Hog Island, a large estuarine ecosystem on the Atlantic coast of Virgina and an LTER site.

PI：EmersonDEB 9972099 该项目的目标是进行一个全面的生物调查的原核生物，真菌和原生生物栖息在中大西洋河口环境的表层沉积物。 这些环境具有很高的生产力，被认为是维持健康的沿海海洋生态系统的关键生境;然而，由于它们靠近沿海开发区，它们往往受到人类的侵蚀。 该项目将利用从环境样本中提取的RNA和DNA的分子和文化分析相结合，然后确定重要的微生物组。 主要的实验采样地点将是Hog Island，这是位于大西洋沿岸的一个大型河口生态系统，也是一个LTER地点。
