Global eutrophication and antibiotic resistance genes dataset for "Coupling mechanisms between cyanobacteria and antibiotic resistance genes in freshwater ecosystems"
This dataset compiles global records of cyanobacteria, antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), and associated water quality parameters to support research on freshwater ecosystem dynamics. It includes 990 metagenomes, 16,648 chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) records, and over 90 documented cases of ARGs–cyanobacteria co-occurrence under comparable spatiotemporal conditions. The dataset covers the years 2000–2024 and provides both raw measurements and harmonized tables for cross-study comparisons. Data were extracted from previously published literature and public repositories, with references to source publications included. This archive is intended to facilitate reproducible analyses, enable large-scale meta-studies, and support further exploration of microbial interactions in freshwater systems.
Langenheim Plant Species Data (1953) and Associated Resurvey Datasets (2014), Gunnison Basin, Colorado, USA
Quantitative plant abundance data were collected from the same 121 sites at two time periods separated by 65 years (1948-1952 and 2012-2014) in the Colorado Rocky Mountains to examine changes in plant community composition. The sites range in elevation from 2600m to 4100m. Approximately 30 sites were sampled from each of four habitat types: sagebrush (2528-3119m, n=27 sites), spruce-fir forest understory (3001-3520m, n=31 sites) , upland herb = montane meadow (3124-3850m, n=30 sites), and alpine (3549-4013m, n=33 sites). The earlier data set was collected by Jean H. Langenheim (1953, 1962) and consisted of counts of species occurrences along approximately 100m paced transects, noting species touching her boot tip every pace (n=100 sampled points per site). The later data set was collected by Stephanie D. Zorio (2015, 2016) consisting of counts of species occurrences every 1m along 300m transects (n=300 sampled points per site). The sites resurveyed by Zorio (2015, Zorio et al. 2016) were placed as close as possible to the original sites based on the written descriptions of Langenheim, but are only approximate. The GPS coordinates given for the resurveyed sites are the centerpoint of 2 perpendicular 150m transects, one across the slope and the other perpendicular to the slope. GPS coordinates for alpine sites along narrow ridges are the start and end points of three 100m transects along the ridge. Georeferenced localities and environmental site data are presented in Table 2: Lang Zorio Env Site Data. Langenheim’s original data were extracted from tables in her thesis (Langenheim 1953). These data omitted species that occurred in fewer than 14% of sites of a given habitat type (constancy). Species that occurred at very low frequencies (<1% per site) were only denoted as an x in the tables. Zorio converted these to frequencies of 0.5 for quantitative comparative purposes. This data set contains 157 species from 27 families across all sites and habitats. Species in seve
Synthesized Dataset of Length-Weight Regression Coefficients for Delta Fish
This dataset is a compilation of length-weight regression coefficients for fish species commonly found in the freshwater tidal habitats of the San Francisco Estuary. This effort was born out of the Delta Smelt Resiliency Strategy Aquatic Weed Control Action study, which, in order to calculate fish biomass, needed to calculate individual fish weights from their measured lengths. The Aquatic Weed Control study was supported by Interagency Ecological Program through the Endangered Species Act and is included in the Interagency Ecological Program 2017-2019 workplan. Weight is estimated from length using the exponential function W=a\ L^b. These can be calculated using the linear regression of the log-transformed equation (log(W)=log(a)+b log(L)). This dataset provides the species-specific a and b parameters. Associated publication(s) and relevant metadata information are included. Data was obtained either via database (fishbase.us) or peer-reviewed scientific papers.
Missouri Lakes and Reservoirs Long-term Limnological Dataset, 1976-2018.
This data set compiles 43 years of limnological data from Missouri lakes and reservoirs collected by the University of Missouri Limnology Lab. Although the dataset includes information from nine different projects, the bulk of the data (~75%) come from the Statewide Lake Assessment Project and the Lakes of Missouri Volunteer Program, both of them funded primarily by Missouri Department of Natural Resources. The Statewide Lake Assessment Project began in 1978 sampling a small set of reservoirs. In 1989 the assessment expanded to include regular annual summer monthly collections between May and August, though monitoring was extended for some reservoirs in certain years. We monitored 240 lakes to create the dataset, which represents over 2600 lake-years. The Lakes of Missouri Volunteer Program began in 1992 monitoring 5 lakes and reservoirs and has expanded to 121 sites on 65 waterbodies. Volunteer community scientists monitor their respective sites approximately 8 times per season (April through September). This dataset represents over 15,000 sample events. Lake Ozarks is a long-term (1976-2014) spatial examination of a single large reservoir during summer. Table Rock Monitoring is another multi-year (1995-2009) spatial examination of a large reservoir, but includes year-round data. The rest of the projects included in the dataset monitored Missouri lakes and reservoirs at various intervals including daily (Woodrail, Daily), weekly (icubed), and biweekly (High Res).
Dataset and analyses for publication entitled: “Acclimation of the nitrogen cycle to changes in precipitation”
This dataset contains data and analysis code for the paper entitled “Acclimation of the nitrogen cycle to changes in precipitation" by Currier et al. As the frequency of precipitation extremes are expected to increase, especially in arid regions, we asked how prolonged shifts in water availability facilitate acclimation of the N cycle in a semiarid grassland. Using natural abundances of stable nitrogen isotopes for dominant plants and soils and rainfall manipulation experiments, we tested the hypothesis that N cycling will interact with water availability further amplifying the openness of the N cycle through time. For the dominant plant species, we found the relationship for N availability vs. ambient annual precipitation to be significantly positive, contrary to global spatial models. We also considered the temporal dynamics of our experiments, which imposed directional rainfall manipulations in duration ranging from 5 to 14 years. The slopes of these relationships decreased (became less positive) with more time since the onset of the directional precipitation extremes. These data and metadata supplement long-term foliar and soil isotope data from the Jornada LTER (Dataset ID: knb-lter-jrn.210586001) with a large spatial dataset from NEON data package DP1.10026.001 and Craine et al. 2018 (https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.v2k2607).
Spatial variability in water chemistry of four Wisconsin aquatic ecosystems - High speed limnology Environmental Science and Technology datasets
Advanced sensor technology is widely used in aquatic monitoring and research. Most applications focus on temporal variability, whereas spatial variability has been challenging to document. We assess the capability of water chemistry sensors embedded in a high-speed water intake system to document spatial variability. We developed a new sensor platform to continuously samples surface water at a range of speeds (0 to > 45 km hr-1) resulting in high-density, meso-scale spatial data. Here, we archive data associated with an Environmental Science and Technology publication. Data include a single spatial survey of the following aquatic ecosystems: Lake Mendota, Allequash Creek, Pool 8 of the Upper Mississippi River, and Trout Bog. Data have been provided in three formats (raw, hydraulic-corrected, and tau-corrected).
Mississippi River spatial water chemistry Environmental Research Letters datasets
We mapped surface water chemistry along the entire length of the Upper Mississippi River (UMR) to understand spatial patterns in nitrate sources and processing. We used a sensor-based and boat-mounted sensing platform to continuously measure underway water chemistry. Measurements were linked with global positioning systems (GPS) to create maps of surface water chemistry. Here, we archive data associated with an Environmental Research Letters publication (Loken et al. 2018). Data include a single spatial survey of the entire length of the UMR (Minneapolis, Minnesota to Cairo, Illinois) in August 2015 and repeat surveys in Navigation Pool 8 (located near La Crosse, WI). Data have been provided in three formats (raw, hydraulic-corrected, and tau-corrected). Additionally, we archive laboratory chemistry data from water samples collected during the project. Sites include a range of main channel, backwaters, and tributaries. Water chemistry samples were analyzed at the North Temperate Lakes - Long Term Ecological Research facility and linked with underway sensor measurements.
Wisconsin creel dataset as well as predictor variables for lakes from 1990 to 2017 to estimate statewide recreational fisheries harvest
Recreational fisheries have high economic worth, valued at $190B globally. An important, but underappreciated, secondary value of recreational catch is its role as a source of food. This contribution is poorly understood due to difficulty in estimating recreational harvest at spatial scales beyond an individual system, as traditionally estimated from angler creel surveys. Here, we address this gap using a 28-year creel survey of ~300 Wisconsin inland lakes. We develop a statistical model of recreational harvest for individual lakes and then scale-up to unsurveyed lakes (3769 lakes; 73% of statewide lake surface area) to generate a statewide estimate of recreational lake harvest of ~4200 t and an estimated annual angler consumption rate of ~3 kg, nearly double estimated United States per capita freshwater fish consumption. Recreational fishing harvest makes significant contributions to human diets, is critical for discussions on food security, and the multiple ecosystem services of freshwater systems.

Simulated NGS read datasets for bacterial pathogenic potential prediction
<p>## Predicting pathogenic potentials from NGS reads: novel bacterial species</p> <p>This repository contains simulated Illumina read datasets for bacterial pathogenic potential prediction and associated metadata extracted from the IMG Database (https://img.jgi.doe.gov/). The reads are 250bp long and were simulated with Mason (https://www.seqan.de/apps/mason/) from genomes downloaded from NCBI. The training-validation-test split was done on the species level to ensure "novelty" of validation and test species. The training sets contain 10 million reads per class, validation sets - 1.25 million reads per class, and test sets - 1.25 million paired reads per class. Additional, imbalanced training sets contain 2.5 million "nonpathogenic" and 17.5 million "pathogenic" reads, keeping the mean covarage constant for all species. The temporal benchmark test set contains reads from 3 additional pathogenic species in the Pantoea genus.</p> <p>## Predicting pathogenic potentials from NGS reads: novel strains of known species</p> <p>The BacPaCS datasets contain reads simulated from the dataset compiled by Barash et al. (https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/bty928). It this case, the training-validation-test split was done on the strain level (so different strains of the same species may be present in all three sets).</p>
Dataset: Environmental drivers of under-ice phytoplankton bloom dynamics in the Arctic Ocean
<p>This dataset is linked to this manuscript entitled "Environmental drivers of under-ice phytoplankton bloom dynamics in the Arctic Ocean" published in Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene (<a href="http://doi.org/10.1525/elementa.430">http://doi.org/10.1525/elementa.430</a>). Please find the abstract below:</p> <p>The decline of sea-ice thickness, area, and volume due to the transition from multi-year to first-year sea ice improves the under-ice light environment for pelagic Arctic ecosystems. One unexpected and direct consequence of this transition, the proliferation of under-ice phytoplankton blooms (UIBs), challenges the paradigm that waters beneath the ice pack harbor little planktonic life. Little is known about the diversity and spatial distribution of UIBs in the Arctic Ocean, or the environmental drivers behind their timing, magnitude, and species composition. Here, we compiled a unique and comprehensive dataset from seven major research projects in the Arctic Ocean (11 expeditions, covering the spring sea-ice-covered period to summer ice-free conditions) to identify the environmental drivers responsible for initiating and shaping the magnitude and assemblage structure of UIBs. The temporal dynamics behind UIB formation related to the ways that snow and sea-ice conditions impact the under-ice light field. In particular, the onset of snowmelt significantly increased under-ice light availability (> 0.1–0.2 mol photons m<sup>–2</sup> d<sup>–1</sup>), marking the concomitant termination of the sea-ice algal bloom and initiation of UIBs. At the pan-Arctic scale, bloom magnitude (expressed as maximum chlorophyll <em>a </em>concentration) was predicted best by winter water Si(OH)<sub>4</sub> and PO<sub>4</sub><sup>3–</sup> concentrations, as well as Si(OH)<sub>4</sub>:NO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> and PO<sub>4</sub><sup>3–</sup>:NO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup><sub> </sub>drawdown ratios, but not NO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup> concentration. Two main phytoplankton assemblages dominated UIBs (diatoms or <em>Phaeocystis</em>), driven primarily by the winter nitrate:silicate (NO<sub>3</sub><sup>–</sup>:Si(OH)<sub>4</sub>) ratio and the under-ice light climate. <em>Phaeocystis</em> co-dominated in low Si(OH)<sub>4</sub> (i.e., NO<sub>3</sub>:Si(OH)<sub>4</sub> molar ratios > 1) waters, while diatoms contributed the bulk of UIB biomass when Si(OH)<sub>4</sub> was high (i.e., NO<sub>3</sub>:Si(OH)<sub>4</sub> molar ratios < 1). The implications of such differences in UIB composition could have important ramifications for Arctic biogeochemical cycles, and ultimately impact carbon flow to higher trophic levels and the deep ocean.</p>
