Fig. 3

Example of the evolution of the fuzzy membership grades along the Munida transect (in kilometres from the shore) in January 2014. a The clusters based on environmental parameters (Surface temperature and Salinity) describe the different water masses: Neritic waters (red), Sub-Tropical waters (brown), Front (yellow) and Sub-Antarctic waters (orange). b Evolution of the microbial community clusters (based on OTUs) along the transect. The environmental clusters are kept in shades of grey for easiness of comparison. The evolution of the fuzzy membership grades for the other sampling months can be found in the SI, Fig. 1A to F
