Microbial OTU richness. Mean predictor importance (% of increase of mean squared error) of environmental drivers on microbial OTU richness for (A) the bacteria and (B) the eukaryotes. Only the variables represented by red barplots are significant (P < 0.05). Temporal evolution of the (C) bacterial and (D) eukaryotic richness across the year. The horizontal black dashed line represents the median richness of the whole dataset. The blue line represents a regression fitted using the “gam” method. Shaded areas correspond to the point wise 95% confidence interval on the fitted values. SPM: suspended particulate matter; TEP: transparent polymeric substances; EPS: extracellular polymeric substances
