Data from: Using Landsat time-series to investigate nearly 50 years of tree canopy cover change across an urban-rural landscape in southern Ontario
<p><strong>Paper Abstract:</strong></p> <p>Canadian urban and adjacent landscapes have been dynamic over the last 50 years due to land management, land cover alternations, climate change, and disturbances. Remote sensing, particularly the Landsat archive, provides the only means to spatially quantify these long-term dynamics locally. Here, we explore the utility of Landsat, including the often-forgotten MSS sensor, for investigating percent tree canopy cover (TCC) change between 1972 and 2020 in a Canadian urban-rural context. We build a TCC time-series by training random forest models using visually interpreted TCC from high-resolution imagery. Predictors include topographic and yearly LandsatLinkr-harmonized and LandTrendr-fitted tasseled cap indices. Yearly binary TCC maps are built to mask consistently treeless areas and limit noise. To increase confidence in observed TCC change without historical reference imagery, we investigate multiple temporal validation options. Our TCC time-series (R2: 0.89, RMSE: 10.7%), quantifies TCC dynamics while limiting erroneous change and predictor space extrapolation. We explore TCC changes across landscapes, revealing periods of gain and loss associated with agricultural reforestation (1978-1996), housing development (on-going), drought (late 1990s), emerald ash borer (2010s), an ice storm (2013), and other drivers. Results demonstrate how long-term Landsat time-series can be used to better understand historical tree canopy change at local-regional scales. </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Dataset details:</strong></p> <p>See paper. </p> <ul> <li>cc_72to20.tif: Yearly tree CC predictions (1972-2020)</li> <li>always_nonforest10_nowater.tif: continuous-non-canopy mask</li> <li>water.tif: water mask</li> <li>Yearly.zip: Annual predictors (including CC10) and asc outputs</li> </ul> <p> </p> <p>See code on GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/ZZMitch/PredictTreeCC_Landsat_1972to2020">ZZMitch/PredictTreeCC_Landsat_1972to2020: Code from the portion of my PhD about using Landsat time-series to predict tree canopy cover from 1972 - 2020.

Data for: Multi-omics analysis identifies symbionts and pathogens of blacklegged ticks (Ixodes scapularis) from a Lyme disease hotspot in southeastern Ontario, Canada
<p>Ticks in the family Ixodidae are recognized as important vectors of zoonoses including Lyme disease (LD), which is caused by spirochete bacteria from the <em>Borreliella</em> (<em>Borrelia</em>) <em>burgdorferi</em> sensu lato (<em>Bbsl</em>) complex. The blacklegged tick (<em>Ixodes scapulars</em>) continues to expand across Canada, creating hotspots of elevated LD risk at the leading edge of its expansion range. Current efforts to understand the risk of pathogen transmission associated with <em>I. scapularis</em> in Canada focus primarily on targeted screens, while variation in the tick microbiome remains poorly understood. Using multi-omics consisting of 16S metabarcoding and ribosome-depleted, whole-shotgun RNA transcriptome sequencing, we examined the microbial communities associated with adult <em>I. scapularis</em> (N = 32), sampled from four tissue types (whole tick, salivary glands, midgut, and viscera) and three geographical locations within an LD hotspot near Kingston, Ontario. The communities consisted of both endosymbiotic and known or potentially pathogenic microbes, including RNA viruses, bacteria, and a <em>Babesia</em> sp. intracellular parasite. We show that β-diversity is significantly higher between individual tick salivary gland and midgut bacterial communities, compared to whole ticks; while linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) determined that the three potentially pathogenic bacteria detected by V4 16S rDNA sequencing were also discriminatory for dissected tissues only, including a <em>Borrelia</em> from the <em>Bbsl</em> complex, <em>Borrelia miyamotoi</em>, and <em>Anaplasma phagocytophilum. </em>Importantly, we find co-infection of <em>I. scapularis</em> by multiple microbes, in contrast to diagnostic protocols for LD, which typically focus on infection from a single pathogen of interest (<em>B. burgdorferi</em> sensu stricto).</p>
