From: Transfer of labile organic matter and microbes from the ocean surface to the marine aerosol: an experimental approach

Figure 6

The dominant bacterial OTUs are different in seawater and in aerosol samples. The OTUs shared between seawater and aerosol samples (i.e., those OTUs identified to be subjected to sea-to-air transfer) are shown in the scatterplot. The top-four most abundant OTUs identified in seawater and aerosol samples are highlighted in yellow and in red, respectively. The OTU ID indicates the base pair lengths (see methods section) of the ARISA fragments.
