PLoS One: Global Patterns of Bacterial Beta-Diversity in Seafloor and Seawater Ecosystems

“This first synthesis of global bacterial distribution across different ecosystems of the World’s oceans shows remarkable horizontal and vertical large-scale patterns in bacterial communities. This opens interesting perspectives for the definition of biogeographical biomes for bacteria of ocean waters and the seabed.”

This is one cool modern day ecological analysis.
