Juvenile Salmonid Emigration Monitoring in the Stanislaus River at Oakdale, California, 1996-2023
The operation of the rotary screw trap on the lower Stanislaus River at Oakdale Recreation Area is one of the longest-running datasets (1996-2023) in the Central Valley for juvenile salmonids. The primary objectives of the study are to collect data that can be used to estimate the passage of juvenile fall-run Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and to quantify the raw catch of Oncorhynchus mykiss. Secondary objectives of the trapping operations focus on collecting biological data on juvenile salmonids and gathering environmental data that will be used to develop models that correlate environmental parameters with salmonid size, temporal presence, abundance, and production.
Regional E-Atlas of the Greater Phoenix Region: Areas of significant agricultural and residential groundwater use, 1996-2000
Spatial distribution of well water usage (groundwater) for the period 1996 - 2000. These data present significant areas of agricultural and residential groundwater use during this period. This is a spatial data object with a Coordinate Reference System (CRS) of EPSG:3479 NAD83(NSRS2007) / Arizona Central (ft); https://www.spatialreference.org/ref/epsg/3479/). The coordinate reference system (CRS) associated with these data when they were constructed initially was misrepresented in early versions (<= knb-lter-cap.101.8) of this dataset. The CAP LTER has attempted to assign a CRS based on reasonable values but the accuracy of the identified CRS cannot be certain.
Consumer Stocks: Physical Data from Everglades National Park (FCE), South Florida from February 1996 to April 2008
We hypothesize that standing crops of consumers reflect patterns of allochthonous nutrient transport along the estuarine interface at the Florida Coastal Everglades (FCE) LTER. Our goal is to investigate how variation in hydrology, water quality, and disturbance influence secondary production. This data set represents the physical data of the sampled plots.
Consumer Stocks: Fish Biomass from Everglades National Park (FCE), South Florida from February 1996 to March 2000
We hypothesize that standing crops of consumers reflect patterns of allochthonous nutrient transport along the estuarine interface at the Florida Coastal Everglades (FCE) LTER. Our goal is to investigate how variation in hydrology, water quality, and disturbance influence secondary production. This data set represents the numeric count data of fish, plants, and other fauna.
Water Quality Data (Extensive) from the Taylor Slough, Everglades National Park (FCE LTER), Florida, USA, April 1996 - ongoing
Water quality samples are being collected using ISCO autosamplers at all wetland sites (that is, all sites except TS/Ph-9, 10, and 11). The autosamplers contain 24 1L bottles. Water is sampled by programming the autosamplers to take composite samples once every 3 days. These samples are a composite of four 250mL subsamples drawn every 18 hours (a sampling scheme that captures a dawn, noon, dusk, and midnight sample in every three day composite). The samples are collected every 3-4 weeks and analyzed for total phosphorus (TP), total nitrogen (TN), and salinity. When sites are visited to collect these samples, we also collect a grab sample that is immediately put on ice. A portion of these grab samples is filtered through a Whatman GF/F filter immediately upon return to the lab, and the filtered samples are analyzed for inorganic nutrients such as NO2-, NO3-, NH4+, SRP, and DOC. The unfiltered fraction of these grab samples is analyzed for TP, TN, and TOC. We use these monthly grab samples to generate relationships between TP and SRP, and between TN and NO2- + NO3- + NH4+. Dissolved nutrients are measured using standard rapid flow analyzer (RFA) techniques. TP is analyzed with a modified Solorzano and Sharp (1980) technique. TN is measured with an Antec TN analyzer, TOC and DOC are quantified on a Shimadzu TOC Analyzer, and salinity is measured with an YSI conductivity meter. In addition to the regular water quality monitoring, we use the rain level actuators at all freshwater sites to trigger water sampling after rain events exceed a given threshold of duration and/or intensity. As currently programmed, when the threshold of = 2.5 cm of rain per hour is passed, the autosampler at that site collects a 500mL sample 30 minutes after the threshold has been reached. Rain event samples are collected, treated, and analyzed as all other water quality samples.
Chemistry of freely-draining soil solutions at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, Watershed 1, 1996 - present
Tension-free lysimeters were installed in three soil horizons at 13 locations within Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest Watershed 1, representing the variation in elevation and forest type of the watershed. At each location lysimeters were placed beneath the Oa horizon and within the upper and lower B horizon. Soil solution samples were collected approximately monthly and analyzed for pH, acid neutralizing capacity (ANC), base cations, soluble anions, trace metals, nitrogen and carbon. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
Mass and Chemistry of Organic Horizons and Surface Mineral Soils on Watershed 1 at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest 1996-present
This data set includes chemistry of O-horizons ("forest floor") and the 0-10 cm mineral soil layer in Watershed 1 at Hubbard Book. Calcium in the form of wollastonite (CaSiO3) was added to Watershed 1 in October 1999. The application rate was 1028 kg Ca per ha, and the application was relatively uniform across the watershed. Pre-treatment forest floor surveys were completed in 1996 and 1998. The first post-treatment forest floor survey was completed in 2000. This data set includes mass and thickness data for the sampled layers. Chemical data include concentrations and pools of organic matter, C, N, Ca, Mg, K, P, Mn, Fe, Al, Cu, Pb, and Zn. Soil pH and exchangeable Al, Ca, Mg, K, and H are also included. Sampling is intended to continue at 4 or 5 year intervals. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest: Watershed 1 Tree Inventory, 1996 - ongoing
In order to evaluate the role of Ca supply in regulating the structure and function of base-poor forest and aquatic ecosystems, the Ca content of soil was increased through the application of wollastonite (CaSiO3) in October 1999. The watershed is forested by typical northern hardwood species (sugar maple, beech and yellow birch) on the lower 90 % of its area, and by a montane boreal transition forest of red spruce, balsam fir and white birch on the highest 10%. Forest inventory surveys were initiated in 1996 and repeated at 5 year intervals. This data set includes 2016 inventory measurements. The data consists of a total inventory of all trees ≥10 cm diameter-at-breast-height (dbh) on the whole of the watershed (11.8 ha), as measured in each of the 200 25 m x 25 m plots. Trees ≥ 2 to ≤10 cm dbh were subsampled using a 3 meter wide strip along one edge of each 25 m x 25 m plot. With the addition of tree tags in 2006 on all trees ≥10 cm dbh, tracking of individual trees is now possible nd trees that grow into the ≥10 cm dbh size class are tagged each survey. The data consist of the diameters (dbh) of all the trees ≥10 cm dbh, live and dead, in the whole of the watershed (about 9000 individual stems) and an additional 3000-4000 saplings. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
Coarse Litterfall Data at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, 1996 - ongoing
Coarse litterfall (woody litter greater than 2 cm diameter) was collected from cleared plots in the same sites as fine litterfall to quantify total aboveground litterfall in the reference forest. These collections are for quantifying CWD inputs from live standing trees rather than all CWD inputs. Tree mortality and fall rates are used for dead tree inputs. All together these data are used to calculate aboveground production and forest carbon and nutrient budgets. These data were gathered as part of the Hubbard Brook Ecosystem Study (HBES). The HBES is a collaborative effort at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest, which is operated and maintained by the USDA Forest Service, Northern Research Station.
Rabbit survey data on creosotebush and grassland routes from the long-term Small Mammal Exclusion Study at Jornada Basin LTER, 1996-ongoing
This data package contains rabbit survey data from grassland and creosote shrubland habitats on Jornada Experimental Range (JER) and Chihuahuan Desert Rangeland Research Center (CDRRC) lands. Two survey routes were established along Jornada Basin roads in 1996; one in black grama grassland and the other in creosotebush shrubland. Quarterly surveys are conducted on these roads at or near the full moon to measure the density of rabbits in the two vegetation types. Each route is about 6 miles long. Parallel studies were established at the Sevilleta LTER site (New Mexico, USA) and Mapimi Biosphere Reserve (Durango, Mexico). Data collection began in April 1996 and includes date and time lagomorphs are spotted, species identification, habitat type, distance/direction from vehicle, and comments on the weather, moon, and anything unusual. This study is ongoing with new data collected quarterly.
Plant species composition and aboveground biomass data for Saddle snowfence, 1996 - ongoing.
Bowman et al. (1993) have demonstrated that alpine tundra is sensitive to nitrogen and phosphorus additions. Changes in productivity and species composition (belatedly) follow chronic fertilization. Exactly how this response is mediated by changes in precipitation is unknown but can be addressed using the snowfence experiment. Moreover, replication of the experiment will allow for additional sampling of biotic and abiotic components and processes not possible with the size of the Bowman plots. In 1993, 64 2x2m plots were placed in dry and mesic sites both within and outside of the snowfence area, so that 4 replicates of each treatment (nitrogen addition, phosphorus addition, nitrogen and phosphorus addition, and control) could be established in each meadow type with and without snowpack augmentation. 16 additional plots were established on a wet meadow site, but since a corresponding type site did not exist in the snowfence area, there was no snowpack manipulation for the wet meadow plots. In 2016, 9 existing plots were selected and 6 control plots added for assessing recovery from augmented snowpack treatment. Aboveground biomass, species richness, and species composition have been collected periodically since 1996.

Global Mangrove Watch (1996 - 2020) Version 3.0 Dataset
<p>This study has used L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) global mosaic datasets from the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) for 11 epochs from 1996 to 2020 to develop a long-term time-series of global mangrove extent and change. The study used a map-to-image approach to change detection where the baseline map (GMW v2.5) was updated using thresholding and a contextual mangrove change mask. This approach was applied between all image-date pairs producing 10 maps for each epoch, which were summarised to produce the global mangrove time-series. The resulting mangrove extent maps had an estimated accuracy of 87.4 % (95th conf. int.: 86.2 - 88.6 %), although the accuracies of the individual gain and loss change classes were lower at 58.1 % (52.4 - 63.9 %) and 60.6 % (56.1 - 64.8 %), respectively. Sources of error included a mis-registration in the SAR mosaic datasets, which could only be partially corrected for, but also confusion in fragmented areas of mangroves, such as around aquaculture ponds. Overall, 152,604 km<sup>2</sup> (133,996 - 176,910) of mangroves were identified for 1996, with this decreasing by -5,245 km<sup>2</sup> (-13,587 - 3686) resulting in a total extent of 147,359 km<sup>2</sup> (127,925 - 168,895) in 2020, and representing an estimated loss of 3.4 % over the 24-year time period. The Global Mangrove Watch Version 3.0 represents the most comprehensive record of global mangrove change achieved to date and is expected to support a wide range of activities, including the ongoing monitoring of the global coastal environment, defining and assessments of progress towards conservation targets, protected area planning and risk assessments of mangrove ecosystems worldwide.</p> <p>The paper which goes along with this dataset is available at the following reference:</p> <p>Bunting, P.; Rosenqvist, A.; Hilarides, L.; Lucas, R.M.; Thomas, T.; Tadono, T.; Worthington, T.A.; Spalding, M.; Murray, N.J.; Rebelo, L-M.

City of Seattle, Seattle Public Utilities, Annual Bull Trout Redd Surveys in Tributaries to Chester Morse Lake 1996-current, Cedar River Municipal Watershed, King County, WA
These data were collected during weekly annual redd surveys conducted by Seattle Public Utilities (SPU) in the Cedar River Municipal Watershed (CRMW), 1996 - current. Annual weekly bull trout redd surveys funded through the CRMW Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP) began in 2000 and ended in 2011 spawning year. To reinstate a monitoring program for the population, redd surveys in the most heavily used habitats by bull trout (termed the Core Zone), were opportunistically conducted in 2018. Weekly annual surveys in most of the Core Zone were reinstated in 2019. Approximately 77% of all redds observed 2000 - 2011 would have been observed during those years using the 2019 - 2022 spatial survey extent (SPU data on file). In 2023, the spatial and temporal coverage of surveys were on par with historical coverage, i.e., approximately 100% of all redds observed 2000 - 2011 would have been observed using the 2023 spatial survey extent. Information on redd location is used primarily to enable derivation of redd elevations. Redd elevation is required to estimate potential impacts to the spawning population and incubating embryos caused by reservoir inundation of stream spawning habitat after the spawning period during fall through spring. Redd weekly timing information is critical to accurately represent whether embryos remain in the gravel and are vulnerable to impacts of reservoir inundation as the reservoir is refilled starting in early spring. It is also vitally important that SPU understand timing and abundance of redds beyond the inundation zone to enable understanding of the overall impact to the population.
Journey North - American Robin observations by volunteer community scientists across Central and North America (1996-2020)
This data package contains American Robin migration data consisting of 39,260 total observational reports from 1996 - 2020 across North and Central America. These data were collected by 17,619 community scientists for Journey North, a crowdsourced participatory science program of the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum. The Journey North American Robin Project is an ongoing study of American Robin phenology conducted at broad spatial and temporal scales. Since 1996, community scientists have tracked first arrival dates and breeding and feeding behavior as well as the onset of fall migration and presence of American Robin species throughout the winter months in the United States. The focal species is the American Robin (Turdus migratorius). Observers also provide estimates of the number of birds sighted. However, observers do not follow standardized methods for counting species observed. Observers do not observe at set times of the day, do not repeat observations regularly, and are not required to provide the length of time during which a specified number of species observed were counted. Therefore, it is recommended that this dataset be analyzed to indicate presence not abundance. Researchers are encouraged to read the rich information provided by volunteers in their comments. These comments provide qualitative information about observational reports. Researchers are also encouraged to refer to submitted photographs that also provide context for observational reports. The Journey North American Robin Project dataset is hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Shared Web Hosting Service.
Journey North - Tulip observations by volunteer community scientists across North America (1996-2020)
This data package contains tulip phenology data consisting of 21,148 total observational reports from 1996 - 2020 across North America. These data were collected by 6,645 community scientists for Journey North, a crowdsourced participatory science program of the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum. The Journey North Tulip Test Garden Project is an ongoing study of tulip phenology conducted at broad spatial and temporal scales. Since 1996, community scientists have tracked planting, emergence, and blooming of tulips (Tulipa L.) in the United States. Most observations should be of the Red Emperor Tulip, but not all observations can be validated as this species. Researchers are encouraged to read observer comments to confirm tulip species. Observers also provide estimates of the number of tulips sighted. However, observers do not follow standardized methods for counting species observed. Observers do not observe at set times of the day, do not repeat observations regularly, and are not required to provide the length of time during which a specified number of species observed were counted. Therefore, it is recommended that this dataset be analyzed to indicate broad phenological information. Researchers are encouraged to read the rich information provided by volunteers in their comments. These comments provide qualitative information about observational reports. Researchers are also encouraged to refer to submitted photographs that also provide context for observational reports. The Journey North Tulip Test Garden Project dataset is hosted by the University of Wisconsin-Madison Shared Web Hosting Service.
Mycorrhizal Fungi of Native Red Pine Stands in the Forests of the Huron Mountains (1996-2015).

Oral history transcripts from the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest Program, 1996 to 2018
Oral history interviews have been conducted over the last two decades with members of the Andrews Forest community who provided valuable historical information about the program and related issues. On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the experimental forest (1998), history professor Max Geier (Western Oregon University) conducted 33 interviews with individuals (or pairs of people) and five research groups from 1996-1998. About 20 years later (2013-2018) historian Sam Schmieding (Oregon State University) conducted an additional 10 oral histories, including some with people who had been interviewed by Geier 20 years earlier. Several additional relevant oral histories with people who have been important in the history of the Andrews Forest have been conducted and are also included in this collection. This data package includes an inventory and transcripts of these oral history interviews including brief biosketches of interviewees.
Temporal and spatial changes of the abundance and species composition of phytoplankton in the California Current from samples collected aboard CalCOFI cruises from summer 1996 through 2022.
The abundances of 385 taxonomic categories of phytoplankton (species where possible) are presented for the 26.5 -year period beginning with summer, 1996 and concluding with autumn 2022. There were four cruises per year. Samples were water samples collected from the second depth, which was designed to sample the mixed layer when a mixed layer existed, generally between 5m - 15m. Before counting, samples from single stations were pooled into four regions: NE (northern inshore), SE (southern inshore), Alley (the region of the California Current) and Offshore (Central Pacific). Pooled samples were enumerated with an inverted microscope. The species data are presented by seven major taxonomic categories followed by the sums of those major taxa. The species codes are defined in the table metadata.
