North Temperate Lakes LTER: Benthic Macroinvertebrates 1981 - current (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
This data package is formatted as an ecocomDP (Ecological Community Data Pattern). For more information on ecocomDP see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-ntl/11/35. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: Macroinvertebrates are collected from selected shoreline and deep water locations in the seven primary lakes (Allequash, Big Muskellunge, Crystal, Sparkling, and Trout lakes, and unnamed lakes 27-02 [Crystal Bog], and 12-15 [Trout Bog]) in the Trout Lake area using modified Hester-Dendy samplers. Samplers are placed at fyke net and gill net locations in August and retrieved 3-4 weeks later. Macroinvertebrates are preserved in ethanol. This dataset contains counts of various groups of macroinvertebrates identified from specific samples. The majority of the identifications are at the genus level. The data table "Benthic Macroinvertebrate Codes" identifies the taxonomic group represented by each group code.

North Temperate Lakes LTER: Fish Abundance 1981 - current (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
This data package is formatted as an ecocomDP (Ecological Community Data Pattern). For more information on ecocomDP see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-ntl/7/39. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: This data set is a derived data set based on fish catch data. Data are collected annually to enable us to track the fish assemblages of eleven primary lakes (Allequash, Big Muskellunge, Crystal, Sparkling, Trout, bog lakes 27-02 [Crystal Bog] and 12-15 [Trout Bog], Mendota, Monona, Wingra and Fish). Sampling on Lakes Monona, Wingra, and Fish started in 1995; sampling on other lakes started in 1981. Sampling is done at six littoral zone sites per lake with seine, minnow or crayfish traps, and fyke nets; a boat-mounted electrofishing system samples three littoral transects. Vertically hung gill nets are used to obtain two pelagic samples per lake from the deepest point. A trammel net samples across the thermocline at two sites per lake. In the bog lakes only fyke nets and minnow traps are deployed. Parameters measured include species-level identification and lengths for all fish caught, and weight and scale samples from a subset. Derived data sets include species richness, catch per unit effort, and size distribution by species, lake, and year. Dominant species vary from lake to lake. Perch, rockbass, and bluegill are common, with walleye, large and smallmouth bass, northern pike and muskellunge as major piscivores. Cisco have been present in the pelagic waters of four lakes, and the exotic species, rainbow smelt, is present in two. The bog lakes contain mudminnows. Protocol used to generate data: Day seines were only used in 1981 and have been eliminated from this data set to make sampling effort across years comparable. Number caught for each species is summed over repetitions of
CGR02 Sweep sampling of Grasshoppers on Konza Prairie LTER watersheds (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
This data package is formatted as an ecocomDP (Ecological Community Data Pattern). For more information on ecocomDP see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-knz/29/18. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: Sweep samples were taken for grasshoppers (Acrididae) at two sites for each of 14 Konza Prairie LTER watersheds. Samples are taken in late July to early August. At each site on each occasion, 10 sets of 20 sweeps (200 sweeps total) are taken. Stored data include for each site on each occasion: total number of each species (all instars combined) collected and total number for each instar for each species (200 sweeps combined).
CSM01 Seasonal Summary of Numbers of Small Mammals on 14 LTER Traplines in Prairie Habitats at Konza Prairie (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
This data package is formatted as an ecocomDP (Ecological Community Data Pattern). For more information on ecocomDP see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-knz/88/8. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: Data set contains seasonal summaries (spring and autumn) of the number of individuals of each species of small mammal captured (relative abundance) on each grassland trapline. Each record contains year, season, trapline and number of individuals captured of each species. These live trap records are based on daily captures during two 4-day trapping periods in spring (late February to early April) and autumn (early October to mid-November) for each of 14 permanent traplines established on seven fire-grazing treatments (two traplines per treatment). These seven fire-grazing treatments include three sites that are grazed by bison (1 unburned, 1 annual burn and 1 4-year burn) and four sites that are not grazed by bison (1 unburned, 1 annual burn and 2 4-year burn).
[DEPRECATED] CFC01 Kings Creek long-term fish and crayfish community sampling at Konza Prairie (Reformatted to ecocomDP Design Pattern)

For more information on the ecocomDP project see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP/tree/master, or contact EDI https://environmentaldatainitiative.org. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=knb-lter-knz&identifier=130&revision=4 The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context:
Meiobenthos abundance. Long-term variability and dynamics of estuarine meiobenthic populations for North Inlet Estuary, South Carolina, from 1972 to 1992, North Inlet LTER (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
This data package is formatted as an ecocomDP (Ecological Community Data Pattern). For more information on ecocomDP see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-nin/6/1. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: The original purpose of this research was to determine if natural meiobenthic assemblages exhibited continuity over time and to monitor several physical variables to determine if these influenced long-term temporal patterns. The most recent study focused on variation and the relations of meiobenthos abundance with environmental factors over 11 years. Typically marine benthic community studies are limited temporally and the majority of previously published 'longterm' meiofauna results (all taxa) were based on about a year's duration.
Zooplankton Data for North Inlet Estuary, South Carolina, from 1981 to 1992, North Inlet LTER (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
This data package is formatted as an ecocomDP (Ecological Community Data Pattern). For more information on ecocomDP see https://github.com/EDIorg/ecocomDP. This Level 1 data package was derived from the Level 0 data package found here: https://pasta.lternet.edu/package/metadata/eml/knb-lter-nin/2/1. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: This data package consists of Zooplankton Data for North Inlet Estuary, South Carolina, from 1981 to 1992, North Inlet LTER. The purpose of the long term monitoring of zooplankton was to characterize the fauna in the water column larger than or equal to 153 microns and to obtain some basic information on each of the taxa encountered there. A sampling regime of collections made at regular biweekly intervals was implemented to provide the best quantitative assessment of long term changes in the zooplankton population dynamics.

EDI and NEON dataset descriptions and coverage to support the paper "ecocomDP: A flexible data design pattern for ecological community survey data"
This dataset contains an inventory for the paper entitled "ecocomDP: A flexible data design pattern for ecological community survey data" (O'Brien et al), submitted to Ecological Informatics. The paper describes an approach for harmonizing and reformatting community survey data such as organism abundance or cover measurements. Data currently using this data model and workflow approach are from the repository of the Environmental Data Initiative (EDI), the Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) Network, and the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON). Data were assembled for this analysis in late 2020. The inventory is composed of two tables, describing data from EDI (including LTER) and data from NEON. The EDI inventory includes information for 70 datasets: identifiers for both the original and converted datasets, and basic coverage information such as temporal coverage (range of years and a measurement of sampling evenness), spatial coverage (maximum bounding coordinates and area of the "bounding box"), and taxonomic coverage (taxonomic classes). The NEON inventory contains information from 11 continent-wide NEON data products, divided into individual field sites to be more spatially compatible with EDI and LTER data. Taxonomic coverage is by group (e.g., algae, birds) rather than explicit taxonomic classes. Spatial coverage is the area of a field sampling site polygon. Temporal coverage includes the same minimum and maximum sampling years and temporal evenness measures as for the EDI data plus a count of months during that period when sampling occurred. At the time of data download, NEON data was considered provisional, however identifiers are persistent and now deliver final, "released" data. Also included in the data package is a script to reformat inventory data and create Figure 3 of the paper.
