This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides phytoplankton data collected from the Kansas River and tributaries, during July 2012 through June 2023. All data are reported as raw calculated values and are not rounded to USGS significant figures. This data release was produced in compliance with the open data requirements as a way to make scientific products associated with USGS research efforts and publications available to the public. The dataset includes all routine and replicate samples collected at five locations along the Kansas River (USGS station numbers 06887500, 06888990, 06892350, 06892518, and 390515094393500) and three tributary sites (USGS station numbers 06857100, 06887000, 06890900). Phytoplankton were identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level and abundance (density) and biovolume are reported.
