  		Fig. 1 Nonmetric-multidimensional scaling plot of community FAME profiles from four different soils (fresh and stored) extracted with the MIDI or EL method. The proportion of variance explained by each axis is based on the correlation (R) between distance in the reduced NMS space and distance in the original space and is reported after each axis heading

  		Fig. 3 Principal components analyses of FAME profiles from fresh and stored Chehalis soil extracted with EL (A) or the MIDI (B) method and from fresh and stored McKenzie River soil extracted with the EL (C) or MIDI (D) method. Error bars represent the standard deviation from the mean coordinate of FAME profiles per storage protocol . The variance explained by the first principal component axis (PC) is shown in parentheses
