TL;DR: In this article, a statistical analysis investigating the value of environmental data and microbial community structure independently and in combination for explaining rates of carbon and nitrogen cycling processes within 82 global datasets is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Droplet digital PCR for simultaneous quantification of general and human-associated fecal indicators for water quality assessment.
TL;DR: Digital PCR has the potential to become a reliable and economical alternative to qPCR for recreational water monitoring and fecal source identification and may also be of interest to other aspects of water research such as detection of pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It was found that metals had a greater effect on microbial community composition than organic pollutants had, and the potential for using microbial community analyses in assessments of the ecosystem health of salt marshes was indicated.
Journal ArticleDOI
