Abstract
The distribution patterns of a variety of bacteria in the surface microlayer, 20 cm and 100 cm below the surface of rivers, open lake waters, and off docks are presented. Implications of this three-season study are that conventional sampling techniques underestimate the true microbiol densities.Keywords
