Description: 
Concentration of genes for Archaeal ammonia monooxygenase subunit A from the Water Column A clade; determined by qPCR (see qPCR parameter table) in units of copies L-1; Blank Cells = no data; either not sampled or the sample was lost; BLD = Below Limit of Detection. See qPCR parameter table. qPCR data are from single biological replicates; means of triplicate qPCR reactions. Limit of detection is given as copies per mL of template DNA; the limit thus varies by sample depending on volume filtered; extract volume and template volume per per reaction. The limits given are from this sample set assuming the minimum detectable concentration in the template used and 1 uL of template per reaction. They are thus conservative as some reactions were run with 10 uL of template.
