a Canonical correspondence analysis plot of microbial communities (based on relative abundance of ASVs) with explanatory environmental variables (vectors) for the four different sampling time points in the heated (orange) and control (blue) bays. Chemical parameters were measured in the pore water of the 0–1 cm sediment, organic matter (OM) was measured from the sediment, and temperature, salinity, and oxygen were measured in the bottom water. Red asterisks indicate parameters that significantly explain the microbial community variation (Supplementary Table 2). b Principal component analysis based on VST transformed RNA transcript counts filtered for at least five reads within at least three samples for the heated bay (orange; n = 12) and the control bay (blue; n = 12).
