Cisco Egg Hatching Data for UV-lamp Phototron Experiments

December 20, 2024

These data contain the survivorship, hatching dates, and two metrics of sublethal effects of ultraviolet radiation (UV-B; 320 nm) exposure on Cisco (Coregonus artedi) embryos. These data were derived from UV-lamp phototron experiments conducted in the laboratory using fertilized Cisco eggs from wild caught fish from Lake Koronis, MN from 2021 - 2022. Cisco are an important species of fish that is distributed across many lakes throughout northern North America, including the Great Lakes where their conservation or restoration is of great interest. These experiments were conducted to help understand if UV-B could contribute to the recruitment bottlenecks of the early life stages of these fish.
