Biological and chemical data from attenuated and pulsed exposures of fire chemical to fish
May 2, 2022
Survival endpoints for juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) in response to exposure to wildland firefighting chemicals. Exposures were either attenuated or pulsed. For attenuated exposures, chemical treatment was applied at the beginning of the exposure and control water was added for the duration of the assay so chemical concentration gradually decreased over time. In pulsed exposures, organisms were exposed to chemical treatments for a set period of time and then moved to chambers without chemical applied. This data set includes data from seven assays and include treatments under various exposure conditions such as different background water hardness, chemical application rates, and [...]

Toxicity of wildland fire-fighting chemicals in pulsed exposures to rainbow trout and fathead minnows
Intrusions of fire-fighting chemicals in streams can result from containment and suppression of wildfires and may be harmful to native biota. We investigated the toxicity of seven current-use fire-fighting chemicals to juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) by simulating chemical intrusions under variable field conditions to provide insight on the po
