Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>The Multidisciplinary Observatory for Study of the Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition consisted of a year-long drifting survey of the Central Arctic Ocean. The ecosystems component of MOSAiC included the sampling of molecular data, with metagenomes collected from a diverse range of environments. The generation of metagenome-assembled-genomes (MAGs) from metagenomes are a starting point for genome-resolved analyses. This dataset presents a catalogue of MAGs recovered from a set of 73 samples from MOSAiC, including 2407 prokaryotic and 56 eukaryotic MAGs, as well as annotations of a near complete eukaryotic MAG using the Joint Genome Institute (JGI) annotation pipeline. The metagenomic samples are from the surface ocean, chlorophyll maximum, mesopelagic and bathypelagic, within leads and under-ice ocean, as well as melt ponds, ice ridges, and first- and second-year sea ice. This set of MAGs can be used to benchmark microbial biodiversity in the Central Arctic Ocean, compare individual strains across space and time, and to study changes in Arctic microbial communities from the winter to summer, at a genomic level.</jats:p>
