Throw trap and electrofishing data collected during 1996–2022 from the Everglades, Florida, United States for the publication "Contrasting invasion histories and effects of three non-native fishes observed with long-term monitoring data"
This dataset was used to analyze the effects of three non-native fishes in the Florida Everglades for a publication in the journal Biological Invasions. The dataset incorporates plot-level mean densities (# of individuals per square meter) of common aquatic animals collected during 1996–2022 from 17 sites across three regions of the Everglades: Taylor Slough, Shark River Slough, and Water Conservation Area 3A. Prey species included are nine common small fishes and three common decapod species (two crayfish species and grass shrimp). The dataset includes throw trap data on three predator taxa: African Jewelfish (Hemichromis letourneuxi), Mayan Cichlids (Mayaheros uruphthalmus), and sunfishes (Lepomis spp.). Annual indices of mean wet season electrofishing catch-per-unit-effort of Asian Swamp Eels (Monopterus albus/javanesis), Mayan Cichlids, sunfishes, and the three other large 'top predator' fishes (Amia calva, Lepisosteus platyrhincus, Micropterus salmoides) are included for plots where electrofishing was performed from 1997-2021. Hydrologic measures used in analyses and R code used to conduct analyses are also included.
Long-Term Slough Crayfish (Procambarus fallax) Densities in the Florida Everglades from Throw Trap Sampling, Florida, USA, February 1996-December 2016
Densities of slough crayfish (Procambarus fallax) were collected throughout the Florida Everglades using 1-m2 throw-trapping samples from 1996–2016. Data were collected in four distinct regions within the Everglades (Shark River Slough, Taylor Slough, Water Conservation Area 3A and 3B) and during five seasonal periods each year. Each region consists of a series of sites, and each site consists of 3–5 sampling plots. The plot scale defines the unique sampling unit in the study, and 5–7 replicate throws were conducted at each plot. Corresponding hydrologic data were collected in conjunction with crayfish observations. These data describe antecedent average water depths, along with the duration of previous wet and dry conditions. Antecedent conditions were calculated by using both in situ measurements, as well as model output from the Everglades Depth Estimation Network (EDEN). Additional hydrologic data are provided in the LD_0 dataset, which describes daily depths measurements at sampling plots, as well as the length of antecedent complete drying events (LD_0). The length of antecedent dry conditions is assessed in R script FCE1267_01_LD_Depths, while the crayfish modeling code is described in FCE1267_02_Modeling_Code.

Perennial grass recovery following livestock overgazing and shrub removal: an experiment at the Jornada Experimental Range (Jornada Basin LTER), 1996-2016
The objective of this ongoing study is to determine the effect of cattle grazing and shrub removal on the decline and recovery of perennial grasses in a mesquite-invaded black grama grassland on sandy soils in the northern Chihuahuan Desert. The experiment was implemented as a randomized complete block with 3 levels of grazing (summer, winter, and control) and 2 levels of shrub treatment (shrub removal and control) in each of 3 replicate blocks. The 18 experimental units are 0.5 ha (70 x 70 m) exclosures constructed in a mesquite-invaded black grama grassland in the southwest portion of the Jornada Experimental Range in Dona Ana County, New Mexico, USA. Vegetation sampling was conducted with the line-point intercept method. Initial pre-treatment sampling occurred in 1996. Grazing treatments removed 65-80% of aboveground perennial grass biomass over 24-36 hour periods in each of four years from summer 1996 to winter 2000; shrub removal occurred during this time as well. No livestock grazing or shrub removal have occurred since 2000. Post-treatment sampling occurred in 2002, 2009, and 2016.

Krummholz island soil inorganic and organic property data for East of Tvan, 1995 - 1996.
Previous work has shown that passage of Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii) and subalpine fir (Abies lasiocarpa) tree islands across tundra lowers the soil carbon and nitrogen storage capacity of the top 15cm of soil (A horizon) (Pauker and Seastedt 1996). This study shows that levels of KCl extractable ammonium and percent organic matter were also significantly higher in the A horizon of undisturbed tundra sites compared with soils underneath or immediately adjacent to (windward or leeward) the krummholz. The response of soil KCl extractable NO3- also showed this trend but was not statistically significant. Holtmeier and Broll (1992) suggested that the depletion of organics and nutrients following the passage of tree island may be associated with a reduced clay content. We analyzed a subsample of these soils for cation exchange capacity (CEC) and texture. We did not find significantly lower clay content in soils under or adjacent to krummholz compared with those from undisturbed tundra. In fact, percent clay was greater in krummholz and windward sites than in tundra sites. The percent clay of windward sites was significantly greater in windward soils than either krummholz or tundra soils. Clearly, depletion of organics following the passage of tree islands does not appear to be associated with a depleted clay content. We found that CEC was very highly significantly correlated with percent organic content (using percent organic data only from the subset of soils on which CEC was measured). Therefore, the CEC content of these soils would appear to be strongly associated with the organic content but not with the clay content. Percent soil moisture was significantly higher directly underneath the krummholz compared with the other sites. There was no effect of treatment on pH. We also investigated whether the organic matter lost in association with krummholz colonization (i.e. 1m from the tree) was replenished as tundra vegetation recolonized in the wake of the tree is
Krummholz island soil N and root ingrowth data for East of Tvan, 1996 - 1997.
Previous work has shown that passage of Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmannii) and subalpine fir (Abies lasiocarpa) tree islands across tundra lowers the soil carbon and nitrogen storage capacity of the top 15cm of soil (A horizon) (Pauker and Seastedt 1996). The presence of tree islands (krummholz) on the tundra acts as a 'snowfence' causing snow to drift within the krummholz and in a semi-circular area leeward of the krummholz. This drifting causes soil within and leeward of the krummholz to have a much deeper, more consistent and longer lasting snow-cover than the adjacent tundra soils. The snowdrifts form a permanent cover over the leeward and krummholz sites from November through June, helping to insulate the soils beneath from the extreme low temperatures and supplying significantly more meltwater in the spring. In contrast, high winds cause the adjacent tundra to be free from snow and exposed to extremely cold temperatures for much of the winter. Studies have shown that atmospheric nitrogen deposition accumulates on snowpacks throughout the winter months and that this is released as a 'pulse' of nitrogen ions at snowmelt (Williams et al. 1996). We hypothesized that accumulation of snowpacks in krummholz and leeward sites may alter nitrogen dynamics in these areas relative to tundra, by either (a) affecting microbial activity via its insulating effect or (b) accumulating large amounts of atmospherically deposited N and releasing it as a pulse at snowmelt. This study sought to examine the nitrogen inputs into tundra, krummholz, and leeward soils over an entire winter season (using buried ion exchange resin bags which collect ions percolating down at snowmelt and early spring rains) and over a short period in spring, immediately following snowmelt (using microlysimeters to collect soil water over a 24 hour period). Belowground NPP (determined from root ingrowth cores) and d13C values of tundra and krummholz vegetation are also presented in this file. NH4+ and NO3-
Warming and snow experiment plant reproductive and growth data for Saddle, 1993 - 1996.
The International Tundra Experiment (ITEX) is a consortium of research sites seeking to understand the response of tundra plant populations to changes in growing season temperatures through a simple temperature manipulation and transplant experiment. The research goal is to examine the phenologic and reproductive responses of a set of species to experimentally-induced warming at a network of sites. The ITEX design is hierarchical, with sites participating at whatever level they are able. At the minimum, participation in ITEX requires climate monitoring (using the LTER MSR standards), a temperature manipulation using one of three possible designs, and monitoring phenologic and reproductive variables for at least one designated ITEX species or two other species. The temperature manipulation is achieved through use of conical or hexagonal open-top chambers of solar fiberglass, which have been shown to increase the air temperature at the surface approximately 3 degrees C. ITEX studies at Niwot Ridge, a logical outgrowth of the long-term phenology studies there, uses a factorial design based around the long-term snowfence experiment. Twenty cones are placed behind the snowfence, distributed at 10, 25, 45, and 75 m from the fence; each cone is paired with an adjacent plot. Beginning with the 1995 season, 24 additional plots were implemented outside of the snowfence influence. Twelve cones are distributed beyond both the north and south edges of the snowfence area, at 10, 25, 45, and 75 m behind the line of the snowfence; each cone is paired with an adjacent plot. This results in the following treatments: increased winter snow, increased summer temperature, increased snow and increased temperature, and control. Key phenologic, growth, and reproductive traits are being followed on marked individuals of Acomastylis (Geum) rossii and Bistorta (Polygonum) bistortoides, and complete species composition is being monitored.
Elevation gradient plant species composition data for A1, B1, C1, D1, 1953 - 1996.
Plant species presence and abundance (Kooiman and Korb data) were recorded at four stands along an elevational gradient in the Front Range of Colorado. Each stand location was determined by Dr. John Marr. The Marr species data were recorded from at least 12 3ft x 3ft plots located in the corners of his 66ft x 66ft tree quadrats. Only species presence was recorded, not abundance. The Kooiman and Lindhart as well as the Korb data were collected from 50 85cm x 100cm plots which were systematically located within a sampling strip measuring 2m x 100m. Plots were located every two meters alternating left and right of the sampling strip. Species present in the strip but not in the plots were recorded by Kooiman as well as Korb. Species names in this data set are from Weber and Wittman 1996; the Marr and Kooiman datasets were updated using Weber and Wittman's list.
