Nowinski B, Feng X, Preston C, Birch J, Luo H, Whitman W, et al.
ISME J . 2023 Mar; 17(6):813-822. PMID: 36871069
Identifying mechanisms by which bacterial species evolve and maintain genomic diversity is particularly challenging for the uncultured lineages that dominate the surface ocean. A longitudinal analysis of bacterial genes, genomes,...

Miller E, Yamahara K, French C, Spingarn N, Birch J, Van Houtan K
Sci Data . 2022 Dec; 9(1):780. PMID: 36566263
Microplastics have been extensively documented in marine ecosystems and food webs with devastating impacts. To solve this global crisis, identifying the polymer composition is key for resolving the material origin,...

Zhang Y, Ryan J, Hobson B, Kieft B, Romano A, Barone B, et al.
Sci Robot . 2021 May; 6(50). PMID: 34043577
The deep chlorophyll maximum (DCM) layer is an ecologically important feature of the open ocean. The DCM cannot be observed using aerial or satellite remote sensing; thus, in situ observations...

Nowinski B, Smith C, Thomas C, Esson K, Marin 3rd R, Preston C, et al.
Sci Data . 2019 Jul; 6(1):129. PMID: 31332186
Metagenomic and metatranscriptomic time-series data covering a 52-day period in the fall of 2016 provide an inventory of bacterial and archaeal community genes, transcripts, and taxonomy during an intense dinoflagellate...

Nowinski B, Motard-Cote J, Landa M, Preston C, Scholin C, Birch J, et al.
Environ Microbiol . 2019 Feb; 21(5):1687-1701. PMID: 30761723
Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) is an abundant organic sulfur metabolite produced by many phytoplankton species and degraded by bacteria via two distinct pathways with climate-relevant implications. We assessed the diversity and abundance...
