# Amplicon sequences from enriched communities obtained at the mouth of tributaries along Lake Superior’s southern shore

## TL;DR

This paper shares microbial data from Lake Superior's tributary mouths to understand how these areas influence the lake's microbial communities.

## Contribution

The study provides new amplicon sequence data from microbial communities at tributary mouths along Lake Superior’s southern shore.

## Key findings

- Amplicon sequences were collected from 15 sites along Lake Superior’s southern shore.
- The data reflects microbial communities influenced by tributary inputs into the lake.

## Abstract

Here, we present amplicon sequences from enriched communities of bulk and filtered water at 15 sites along Lake Superior’s southern shore, corresponding to the mouths of tributaries that feed into the Great Lake. Microbial communities forming along these sites provide insight into the effect of the tributaries on Lake Superior’s microbial communities.
