We are pleased to announce the publication of our new PeerJ paper – “Change and stasis of distinct sediment microbiomes across Port Everglades Inlet (PEI) and the adjacent coral reefs” https://peerj.com/articles/14288. The results were the first to characterize sediment microbiomes from within the port and could have implications for dredging and other port activities that could impact nearby sensitive reefs. Thanks to Cat and Hyo who were pivotal in sample processing and MiSeq operations, and to Lauren who carried out a large part of the statistical analyses and manuscript writing.
