Aqueous chemistry database, Sleepers River Research Watershed, Danville, Vermont, 1991-2018 Aqueous chemistry database, Sleepers River Research Watershed, Danville, Vermont, 1991-2018
The Sleepers River Research Watershed, near Danville, Vermont, is a 111-square-kilometer watershed established in 1958 by the Agricultural Research Service.The research watershed has since been operated by three other federal agencies: National Weather Service, U.S. Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL), and U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). USGS started at the site...
Temperature and invertebrate community composition at nearshore Great Lakes sites, 2013-2016 (ver. 2.0, April 2025) Temperature and invertebrate community composition at nearshore Great Lakes sites, 2013-2016 (ver. 2.0, April 2025)
Data on ambient water temperatures and invertebrate community composition from ~40 sites in the western basin of Lake Erie, Saginaw Bay (Lake Huron), Grand Traverse Bay (Lake Michigan) and Green Bay (Lake Michigan). These samples were collected as part of a study on spatial variation in ecosystem processes.
Food web fatty acids and stable isotopes in the Upper Mississippi River Basin 2013-2014: Data Food web fatty acids and stable isotopes in the Upper Mississippi River Basin 2013-2014: Data
This dataset includes information from multiple taxa collected from four main reaches in the Upper Mississippi River Basin, including La Grange reach of Illinois River, Pool 2 of Mississippi River, Pool 19 of Mississippi River, and the St. Croix River. Taxa include hydropsychid caddisflies, chironomids, hexagenia mayflies, threeridge mussels, mapleleaf mussels, Wabash pigtoe mussels...
Adirondack Forest Soil Chemistry 1997-2014 Adirondack Forest Soil Chemistry 1997-2014
This dataset contains measurements of chemical concentrations of forest soil samples and associated site measurements collected in the Adirondack Ecoregion of New York State. Data are presented in four groups (tabs) in an Microsoft EXCEL 2013 spreadsheet (and comma-delimited CSV files): (1) Adirondack Sugar Maple Project (ASM), (2) Buck Creek North Watershed, (3) Buck Creek South...

Water column nutrient processing rates in rivermouths of Green Bay (Lake Michigan) Water column nutrient processing rates in rivermouths of Green Bay (Lake Michigan)
Understanding the quantity and form of nutrient loads to large lakes is necessary to understand controls over primary production, phytoplankton community composition and the production of phytotoxins. Nutrient loading estimates to large lakes are primarily made at stream gages that are deliberately placed outside the direct influence of lake processes, but these estimates cannot take...

Evaluating potential effects of bigheaded carps on fatty acid profiles of multiple trophic levels in large rivers of the Midwest, USA Evaluating potential effects of bigheaded carps on fatty acid profiles of multiple trophic levels in large rivers of the Midwest, USA
Recent work indicates that the establishment of bigheaded carps (Hypophthalmichthys spp.) in the United States has led to a reduction in condition of native planktivores and may detrimentally affect other trophic levels by altering the base of aquatic food webs. We used fatty acids to evaluate potential effects of bigheaded carps on taxa from multiple trophic levels in the Upper...

Spatial and temporal variance in fatty acid and stable isotope signatures across trophic levels in large river systems Spatial and temporal variance in fatty acid and stable isotope signatures across trophic levels in large river systems
Fatty acid and stable isotope signatures allow researchers to better understand food webs, food sources, and trophic relationships. Research in marine and lentic systems has indicated that the variance of these biomarkers can exhibit substantial differences across spatial and temporal scales, but this type of analysis has not been completed for large river systems. Our objectives were to...

Associations between cyanobacteria and indices of secondary production in the western basin of Lake Erie Associations between cyanobacteria and indices of secondary production in the western basin of Lake Erie
Large lakes provide a variety of ecological services to surrounding cities and communities. Many of these services are supported by ecological processes that are threatened by the increasing prevalence of cyanobacterial blooms which occur as aquatic ecosystems experience cultural eutrophication. Over the past 10 yr, Lake Erie experienced cyanobacterial blooms of increasing severity and...
