Data

This data set includes plot environmental and vegetation sample data for a project documenting conditions at two post-mining restoration sites in the anthracite coal region of Pennsylvania, USA. Samples at the Good Spring restoration site document vegetation and soil conditions following recent remediation and restoration of slopes of mine-waste piles. Samples at the Nanticoke site...

We tested eDNA metabarcoding as a survey tool to examine invertebrate communities in a uranium mine containment pond. We tested samples collected from surface water near mines and from one mine containment pond using one primer set that targeted the COI gene (Leray et al. 2013). Subsequent sequencing of these amplicons was used to assess eDNA genetic signature of invertebrates living in...

This data set includes soil sample and vegetation plot sample data for a project examining the ability of composted soil amendments to improve terrestrial ecological restoration outcomes in a post-contaminant setting. Sites in the Missouri section of the Tri-States Mining District that had been restored and treated with varying levels of composted soil amendments were assessed for...

Concentrations for 26 PFAS detected in muscle tissues (edible fillets) of 16 estuarine fishes collected from four estuaries along Florida’s Atlantic coast between April 2021 and January 2023.

The U.S. Geological Survey and a consortium of local governments in North Carolina have partnered together to track water quality and quantity conditions in several of the area’s water-supply reservoirs and streams, known as the Triangle Area Water Supply Monitoring Project (TAWSMP). This data release contains the associated data described in the Open-File Report, "Triangle Area Water...

Embryonic zebrafish (Danio rerio) were exposed to 0, 1, 5, 10, or 50 micrograms per liter carbamazepine (CBZ) from 2 hours post fertilization (hpf) through hatching, and then sampled at 48, 72, or 144 hpf. Larvae collected at 48, 72, and 144 hpf were assessed for transcriptomic profiles using RNA sequencing. Larvae collected at 72 and 144 hpf time points were assessed for histological...
