摘要

Lake ecosystems play a fundamental role in the global biogeochemical cycling of essential elements such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus. Microorganisms within these ecosystems mediate key processes that regulate these cycles. Metagenomic analyses provide valuable insights into the taxonomic and functional diversity of microbial communities in various environments, including freshwater habitats. Here, we present a comprehensive metagenomic dataset derived from Lake Soyang, the largest freshwater reservoir in South Korea. A total of 28 metagenomes were generated from water samples collected across two distinct sampling periods: the first set (n = 8) was obtained between April 2014 and January 2015 from two depths (1 m and 50 m) in four different seasons, while the second set (n = 20) was collected between January 2019 and November 2019 from five depths (1, 10, 20, 40, and 90 m) over four seasons. Metagenomic sequencing yielded 9.3–21.8 Gbp per sample. This dataset provides a valuable resource for future studies exploring the ecophysiological characteristics of microbial communities in pelagic freshwater environments.
