Pavloudi, Christina; Santi, Ioulia; Azua, Iñigo; Baña, Zuriñe; Bastianini, Mauro; Belser, Caroline; Bilbao, Jone; Bitz-Thorsen, Julie; Broudin, CarolineThe European Marine Omics Biodiversity Observation Network (EMO BON) is an initiative of the European Marine Biological Resource Centre (EMBRC) to establish a persistent genomic observatory amongst designated European coastal marine sites, sharing the same protocols for sampling and data curation. Environmental samples are collected from the water column and, at some sites, soft sediments and hard substrates (A...

Santi, Ioulia; Beluche, Odette; Beraud, Mélanie; Buttigieg, Pier Luigi; Casotti, Raffaella; Cox, Cymon J.; Cunliffe, Michael; Davies, NeilMarine ecosystems, ranging from coastal seas and wetlands to the open ocean, accommodate a wealth of biological diversity from small microorganisms to large mammals. This biodiversity and its associated ecosystem function occurs across complex spatial and temporal scales and is not yet fully understood. Given the wide range of external pressures on the marine environment, this knowledge is crucial for enabling ...

Zafeiropoulos, Haris; Beracochea, Martin; Ninidakis, Stelios; Exter, Katrina; Potirakis, Antonis; De Moro, Gianluca; Richardson, Lorna; Corre, ErwanBackground: Genomic Observatories (GOs) are sites of long-term scientific study that undertake regular assessments of the genomic biodiversity. The European Marine Omics Biodiversity Observation Network (EMO BON) is a network of GOs that conduct regular biological community samplings to generate environmental and metagenomic data of microbial communities from designated marine stations around Europe. The develo...
