Summary

These datasets contain microbial community data from groundwater samples collected at an in situ bioremediation site located at the former Naval Air Warfare Center (NAWC), West Trenton, NJ. DNA was extracted from groundwater samples collected from monitoring wells at the NAWC study site from July 2008 through July 2015 and analyzed for microbial community structure. Sample collection coincided with a groundwater bioremediation experiment investigating the microbial degradation of the contaminant trichloroethylene (TCE) prevalent in the targeted region of the aquifer. Nutrient addition and a microbial consortium, commercially developed to stimulate the degradation of TCE and TCE byproducts, was introduced to the contaminated groundwater [...]

Purpose

These data report the long-term fate of the consortium of bacteria introduced to the aquifer during bioaugmentation and the resulting changes in groundwater microbial community composition. This data, in conjunction with the corresponding water quality characteristics, was used to understand the relationship between microbial community structure and the degradation of TCE, with the intent of identifying geochemical and biological indicators that relate to TCE-degradation performance.
