Abstract:Estuaries are important components of the global carbon cycle; exchanging carbon between aquatic, atmospheric, and terrestrial environments, representing important loci for blue carbon storage and greenhouse gas emissions. Estuarine particles are especially important due to their microbial transformation and vertical/horizontal transport. We used metagenomes and metatranscriptomes to assess changes in microbial community composition and functions across the Elbe estuary over one year, linking changes to dissol… Show more
