Fig. 1From: Degradation of a benzene–toluene mixture by hydrocarbon-adapted bacterial communitiesOutline of the site SIReN, with general direction of the groundwater flow and location of wells sampled. All wells have an official name used in this study and in official reports (e.g. Jones et al. 2001), but in some papers (e.g. Fahy et al. 2005, 2006), a shorter code has been used (indicated in parentheses here). For well clusters at the same location, the relative depth is indicated in the text by s (shallow), i (intermediate) or d (deep) following the location name. For example, W18i analysed in this study was called Pi in (Fahy et al. 2005); it lies below W18s and above W18dBack to article page
