| 2015 - 2015 | The Ocean Sampling Day (OSD) is a simultaneous sampling campaign of the world’s oceans
which took place (for the first time) on the summer solstice (June 21st) in the year
2014 and was repeated in 2015. These cumulative samples, related in time, space and
environmental parameters, provide insights into fundamental rules describing microbial
diversity and function and contribute to the blue economy through the identification
of novel, ocean-derived biotechnologies. OSD was initiated by the EU-funded Micro
