Surface water was collected between October 2000 and April 2005 at two sampling sites at the Sapelo Island Microbial Observatory (SIMO) in coastal Georgia: the Dean Creek site (a salt marsh tidal creek) and the Doboy Sound (a coastal ocean inlet). Samples were collected for the project "En-Gen: A Functional Genomics Approach to Organic Sulfur Cycling in the Ocean".
