These data are comprised of measurements of elements (e.g., uranium, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, cadmium, lead, etc.) in Canyon Mine containment pond samples collected in calendar years 2017 and 2018.
Pre-restoration vegetation data, Little Saint Francis River chat pile site, Missouri, USA, 2017 and 2018 Pre-restoration vegetation data, Little Saint Francis River chat pile site, Missouri, USA, 2017 and 2018
This data set includes geospatial data and tables providing location, environmental, and vegetation data collected in 2017 and 2018 at the Little Saint Francis River chat pile restoration site, Fredericktown, Madison County, Missouri. Restoration actions are being implemeneted as part of the settlement for the Madison County Mines Superfund site to compensate the public for losses of...
Organochlorine residues and elemental contaminants in U.S. freshwater fish, 1976-1986: National Contaminant Biomonitoring Program Organochlorine residues and elemental contaminants in U.S. freshwater fish, 1976-1986: National Contaminant Biomonitoring Program
The National Contaminant Biomonitoring Program (NCBP), which was developed and maintained by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), monitored concentrations of environmental contaminants in freshwater fish over a period of about 20 years. Beginning in the 1960s as a component of the multi-agency National Pesticide Monitoring Program (NPMP) and continuing through the mid-1980s...
Fecundity of Sicklefin (Macrhybopsis meeki) and Shoal Chub (M. hyostoma) Fecundity of Sicklefin (Macrhybopsis meeki) and Shoal Chub (M. hyostoma)
Estimates of total fecundity of two Macrhybopsis species typically found in the lower Missouri river.
Chemistry data for assessment of the containment pond at Canyon Mine, Arizona 2017 Chemistry data for assessment of the containment pond at Canyon Mine, Arizona 2017
These data are comprised of measurements of elements (e.g., uranium, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, cadmium, lead, etc.), major anions (chloride, nitrite+nitrate as nitrogen, sulfate, etc.), dissolved organic carbon, and general water quality characteristics in Canyon Mine containment pond water, sediment, vegetation and invertebrate samples collected in calendar year 2017.
Tag retention and survival of juvenile bighead carp implanted with an acoustic tag at three temperatures Tag retention and survival of juvenile bighead carp implanted with an acoustic tag at three temperatures
Bighead carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis and silver carp H. molitrix (together, the bigheaded carps) are considered among the most problematic of invasive fishes in North. Movement and behavior of bigheaded carps has been studied through telemetry methods although the majority of work has occurred on large, adult fish; smaller, juvenile bigheaded carps have not yet been evaluated...

The National Contaminant Biomonitoring Program (NCBP), which was developed and maintained by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), monitored concentrations of environmental contaminants in fish and wildlife over a period of about 20 years. Beginning in the 1960s as a component of the multi-agency National Pesticide Monitoring Program (NPMP) and continuing through the mid-1980s, fish...
Acute toxicity of sodium chloride and potassium chloride to a unionid mussel (Lampsilis siliquoidea) in water exposures-Data Acute toxicity of sodium chloride and potassium chloride to a unionid mussel (Lampsilis siliquoidea) in water exposures-Data
Attributes regarding the acute toxicity of sodium chloride (NaCl) and potassium chloride (KCl) to larvae (glochidia) or juveniles of a unionid mussel (fatmucket, Lampsilis siliquoidea) at various water hardness and in the presence of other major ions.
Survival and drifting patterns of grass carp eggs and larvae in response to interactions with flow and sediment in a laboratory flume Survival and drifting patterns of grass carp eggs and larvae in response to interactions with flow and sediment in a laboratory flume
A series of laboratory experiments were conducted to better understand the behavior of grass carp eggs and larvae in moving water in order to develop and implement new strategies for control and prediction of their dispersal and drift at early life stages. Settling velocity and density of a representative sample of eggs were estimated, and three trials of flume experiments with different...
