Vector fields of current anomalies (EOF pattern) in the German Bight within the period March 2012–March 2013. Explained variances are 73.4 % for the first (a) and 12. 2 % for the second (b) EOF. Red dot Helgoland. The second principal component (PCHyd 2) corresponding to the second EOF pattern is compared to the variation of the free-living bacterial community along the second PCoA axis (c). Transparent red boxes mark timeframes in which the bacterial communities of the coastal site are notably differ to that of the offshore sites and in which eigenvalues of PCHyd 2 become negative
