(a) The relationship of archaeal community composition among the five sediment layers with the major environmental factors at the OTU level. Redundancy analysis (RDA) plot was drawn by RDA1 and RDA2. (b) The most abundant 13 families were correlated with the major environmental factors (MCG: Miscellaneous Crenarchaeotic Group; DHVEG-6: Deep Sea Hydrothermal Vent Gp-6; MEG: Miscellaneous Euryarchaeotic Group; DSEG: Deep Sea Euryarchaeotic Group; MBGD: Marine Benthic Group D; ANME: anaerobic methanotroph).
