Field Site Locations from Phragmites Bioherbicide 2024 Field Experiment in Southeast Michigan Field Site Locations from Phragmites Bioherbicide 2024 Field Experiment in Southeast Michigan
This dataset represents the locations of experimental plots that were used during the Phragmites bioherbicide 2024 field experiment, where a novel bio-based formula for herbicide was applied to Phragmites australis to test the efficacy of Phragmites bioherbicide as a tool to control invasive Phragmites. To meet the criteria for selection, a site must have relatively dry soil with no...
Otolith microchemistry for quantifying contributions of tributaries to predators and prey fish in the Upper Mississippi River Otolith microchemistry for quantifying contributions of tributaries to predators and prey fish in the Upper Mississippi River
Laser ablation inductively coupled mass spectrometry was used to quantify Strontium:Calcium of the core of each otolith and classified each fish to a natal origin (i.e., tributary or potential resident). Predator fishes of focus were Bowfin and Largemouth Bass from the Upper Mississippi River (Pools 4, 8, and 13). Any use of trade, firm, or product names is for descriptive purposes only...
Model Estimates of Chlorophyll a and CyanoHABs Occurrence for Select New York State Lakes Model Estimates of Chlorophyll a and CyanoHABs Occurrence for Select New York State Lakes
This data release contains modeled estimates of chlorophyll a concentration and cyanoHAB occurrence for a subset of lakes in New York State. Estimates of chlorophyll a concentration were generated using a random forest model. Estimates of cyanoHAB occurrence were generated based on thresholds derived from bootstrapped logistic regression. All analysis was done in R 4.4.1 (R Core Team...
