Tortuga Restoration Snorkel Surveys on the Stanislaus River, Stanislaus County, CA, 2024-2025

The East Stanislaus Conservation District and Cramer Fish Sciences, funded by a Bureau of Reclamation Central Valley Project Improvement Act program grant, are designing, constructing, and monitoring the Tortuga Salmonid Habitat Restoration project, aimed at improving juvenile rearing and adult spawning habitat on the lower Stanislaus River for Central Valley fall-run Chinook Salmon ( Oncorhynchus tshawytscha ) and steelhead ( O. mykiss ). The project is located approximately 67 km upstream from the confluence with the San Joaquin River. The project has the potential to create approximately 3.18 acres of seasonally inundated rearing habitat, 0.44 acres of perennial in-channel rearing habitat, and 0.44 acres of spawning habitat. The project is expected to be constructed in 2025 or 2026, with two years of post-project monitoring following construction. This work supports effectiveness monitoring of the project including spawning and rearing (snorkel) surveys and is ongoing.

Relative predation rates on juvenile Chinook Salmon in the lower Stanislaus River, California, 2012-2024 by habitat suitability informed by juvenile Chinook Salmon and black bass observations in the lower Stanislaus and Merced rivers, California, 2012-2017

Overview The purpose of this work was to estimate relative predation on juvenile Chinook Salmon rearing in tributaries of the San Joaquin River, California in relation to meso- and microhabitat factors. Predation rates were estimated using predation bioassays. Ranges of depth and velocity targeted by the bioassays were informed by habitat suitability indices developed prior to field efforts. Juvenile Chinook and Bass Habitat Suitability Indices The purpose of this dataset is to develop habitat suitability indices for juvenile Chinook Salmon (<120mm) on the lower Stanislaus River and nonnative black bass ( Micropterus spp.). on the lower Merced River, both tributaries of the San Joaquin. This data was used to identify target ranges of depth and velocity during predation fieldwork. Occupancy data was collected via snorkel surveys on the lower Stanislaus River in 2018 and 2019 and on the Merced River in 2012 and 2014-2017. Predation Tethering Bioassay Study The purpose of this field study was to estimate relative rates of predation of juvenile Chinook Salmon. Predation rates were estimated using assays of tethered hatchery Chinook Salmon deployed across a range of mesohabitats on the lower Stanislaus River. Habitat suitability was expected to vary across mesohabitats and across depths and velocities sampled within habitats. Cameras were deployed with tethers to identify predators for a subset of predation events happening within the first 1-2 hours of deployment. Assays were deployed monthly March-May in 2022 and 2024. A supplemental set of assays were deployed in May 2023 under wet water year conditions that varied strongly from conditions sampled in 2022 and 2024.

Concentration of dissolved organic carbon in water samples taken from the Upper Clark Fork River (Montana, USA) during water year 2021 (1 Oct 2020 - 30 Sep 2021)

The Upper Clark Fork River (UCFR) Long Term Research in Environmental Biology (LTREB) umbrella monitoring project generating these data is conducted separately and complementarily to the 200-million-dollar (USD) superfund project for ecological restoration of the UCFR, associated tributaries, and head water streams including Silver Bow and Warm Springs Creeks. Restoration along the UCFR in western Montana includes removal of metal-laden floodplain soils, lowering of the floodplain to its original elevation, and re-vegetation of over 70 km of the river’s floodplain closest to contaminant sources. The UCFR LTREB project includes bi-weekly water quality monitoring across the first 200 km of the river and its major tributaries along a gradient of heavy metal contamination associated with historic mining. Monitoring includes inorganic phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations, biotic standing stocks, and dissolved and whole-water heavy metal concentrations. The monitoring program began in 2017 with funding extended through 2028. The original analytical intent for these data was to assess the response of river dissolved organic carbon to the floodplain restoration. Data are Aurora Total Organic Carbon combustion analyses of the concentration of organic carbon dissolved in filtered samples of well-mixed river thalweg water. Data are from the 2021 water year (1 Oct 2020 to 30 Sep 2021) from samples collected on the Upper Clark Fork River (USGS HUC 17010201) at project sites distributed along the river from the vicinity of Anaconda to Missoula, Montana, USA.

CO2 and CH4 fluxes from living and standing dead trees in Howland Research Forest, Maine USA, 2024

Methane (CH4) is the second-largest contributor to human-induced climate change, with significant uncertainties in its terrestrial sources and sinks. Tree stems, both living and dead, play crucial roles in forest ecosystem CH4 and carbon dioxide (CO2) flux dynamics, yet much remains unknown regarding the environmental drivers of fluxes. We measured CH4 and CO2 fluxes from 51 living trees (Picea rubens, Tsuga canadensis, Acer rubrum) along an upland-to-wetland gradient at Howland Research Forest, a net annual sink of CH4, in Maine USA. We also measured CH4 and CO2 fluxes from six standing dead red spruce stems (snags). We measured fluxes every two weeks throughout the growing season (April to November 2024) and at three heights (for a subset of red spruce stems) to capture a range of environmental conditions.

Size-Fractionated Chlorophyll a, Primary Productivity, and Photosynthetic Physiological Parameters of Phytoplankton in the Cosmonaut Sea, Southern Ocean, During Summer 2022

This dataset provides vertical distribution profiles of size-fractionated phytoplankton parameters measured in the Cosmonaut Sea, a marginal ice zone in the Southern Ocean, during the austral summer of 2022. Sampling was conducted across multiple stations spanning latitudes from approximately 33°N to 60°N and longitudes from -62°E to -67°E, focusing on surface and subsurface waters up to depths of about 40 meters. The data capture key aspects of phytoplankton physiology and productivity in this dynamic polar environment, influenced by seasonal ice melt and nutrient availability. Parameters include chlorophyll a concentrations (Chl a), primary productivity indicators such as maximum photosynthetic rates (PBm), photosynthetic efficiency (α), saturation irradiance (Ek), and integrated gross primary productivity (IGPPeu), all differentiated by size fractions: net phytoplankton (>20 μm), nano- and pico-phytoplankton (<20 μm), and total community. Additional measurements encompass photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) and mixed layer depths, providing context for light and stratification effects on phytoplankton dynamics. Data were derived from in situ incubations and fluorometric analyses, with values reported for discrete depths at each station to highlight vertical gradients in biomass and photosynthetic performance. This completed dataset is particularly valuable for studies on polar marine ecosystems, carbon cycling, and climate-driven changes in phytoplankton communities, offering insights into how size-structured assemblages respond to environmental gradients in the Southern Ocean. It does not include taxonomic details beyond general phytoplankton groupings but emphasizes physiological metrics for modeling primary production in ice-influenced regions.

Supporting data for “Climate Intervention through Stratospheric Aerosol Injection may partially mitigate marine heatwaves"

Although climate intervention aims to lower the global average temperature, the potential impact of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection on marine heatwaves (MHW) has not been thoroughly examined. This spatial dataset provides global and regional MHW metrics—such as frequency, maximum intensity, and duration—from the Community Earth System Model, version 2 (CESM2), using the baseline scenario SSP2-4.5, referred to as a no climate intervention scenario, and the ARISE-SAI ensemble. The ARISE-SAI model uses the SSP2-4.5 scenario, introducing stratospheric aerosol injection at approximately 21 km in 2035, aiming to keep global mean surface air temperature near 1.5°C for ARISE-SAI-1.5 and near 1.0°C for ARISE-SAI-1.0 above pre-industrial levels. The dataset includes global MHW properties for the historical period (1990-2009), the current period under SSP2-4.5 emission scenario (2015-2034), and future scenarios under SSP2-4.5, ARISE-SAI-1.5, and ARISE-SAI-1.5 for 2050-2059 and 2060-2069.

Soil dissolved organic matter and greenhouse gas fluxes from intact Delmarva Bay wetland soil cores during laboratory simulation of groundwater level rise

Wetlands in low-relief landscapes have dynamic terrestrial-aquatic interfaces as surface water and groundwater levels fluctuate seasonally and these variable water levels influence wetland carbon cycling. Seasonal changes in groundwater levels determine which soils are hydrologically connected to the wetland surface water-groundwater continuum and therefore which soils act as carbon sources. To quantify groundwater-mediated soil dissolved organic matter (DOM) and greenhouse gas (CO2 and CH4) fluxes, we performed a laboratory simulation of groundwater rise on intact soil cores. Soil cores were collected from four Delmarva Bay wetlands located in the low-relief landscape of the Delmarva Peninsula in the Mid-Atlantic United States. At each wetland, two cores (length = 60 cm, diameter = 10.2 cm) were collected: one from within the wetland basin and the second from the transitional zone near the edge of the wetland basin (total number of cores collected = 8). To characterize seasonal hydrologic conditions at each wetland site where intact soil cores were collected (e.g., mean water level, number of saturation events, duration of saturation), we used high frequency water level data collected in wetland center and upland groundwater monitoring wells. In the lab, cores were re-saturated with groundwater over 15 days and after cores were fully re-saturated, core water levels were maintained for an additional 25 days. Water levels in each head tank and soil core were manually recorded on sub-daily timesteps. Rhizon soil porewater samplers were installed at 8, 20, and 40 cm below the soil surface reflecting the expected depths of the O, A, and B soil horizons across the wetland sites. Source groundwater, soil porewater, and exfiltrated surface water samples were collected daily from the soil cores and analyzed for pH, ORP, and DOM concentration (dissolved organic carbon) and DOM composition (absorbance and fluorescence metrics). Discrete measurements of CO2 and CH4 fluxes were

H2Ohio Wetland Monitoring Program Surface Water and Soil Nutrient Content from Wetlands across Ohio, USA (2021–2022).

This data package contains surface water and soil nutrient concentration datasets from wetland projects across Ohio, USA monitored by the H2Ohio Wetland Monitoring Program. Monitoring began in May 2021 and is ongoing. This data package will be updated yearly. In general, surface water samples are collected to measure concentrations of major nutrients, including inorganic nitrogen, ammonium-nitrogen, total nitrogen, dissolved reactive phosphorus, and total phosphorus. Sampling from major inflows and outflows is prioritized at flow-through wetland projects to support the calculation of nutrient filtration estimates using mass balance approaches. Surface water samples may also be collected from representative zones or hydrologic features with sufficient standing water (i.e., vernal pools, vegetated areas, interconnected smaller pond-like areas, etc.) to assess nutrient conditions and processes within the wetland system. The majority of surface water sampling (~monthly) occurs from March through December, with opportunistic sampling in January and February. Every effort is made to collect samples during hydrologic events (i.e., storms) as well as baseflow conditions. Concurrent with surface water sampling, hand-held multiparameter sensors are used to measure snapshots of physicochemical characteristics including dissolved oxygen, temperature, specific conductance, turbidity, and pH. Soil samples (0-5 cm) are collected in saturated and unsaturated zones at each identified soil "patch" determined from expert opinion, soil maps (Natural Resources Conservation Service), and/or hydrogeophysical assessment. Additionally, soil samples may be collected along major visible hydrologic or elevation gradients. Soil sampling occurs 1-3 times a year in select wetland projects.

Northern red oak regeneration in burned and unburned stands in the White Mountain National Forest, New Hampshire, USA, 2023-2024

This project aimed to determine whether prescribed burning of managed forest stands improves the regeneration of Quercus rubra near its northern range limit in New Hampshire. We measured oak seedling density and growth rates in three pairs of managed stands in which one had received a prescribed burn since 2017. We also measured the density of competing seedlings and shrubs, leaf area index above seedling height, soil nutrients, mycorrhizal colonization, foliar carbon/nitrogen ratio, and stable isotopes of nitrogen and carbon. We found greater oak seedling density and faster oak seedling growth rates in burned stands relative to unburned stands. A subset of these measurements were also collected in additional burned and unburned study stands in the region. A companion mesocosm experiment showed faster growth in oak seedlings grown in soil from burned vs. unburned stands. Together these studies show that the benefits of fire to oak regeneration are mediated both via greater light availability as well as effects mediated via soil.

Concentration of dissolved organic carbon in water samples taken from the Upper Clark Fork River (Montana, USA) during water year 2022 (1 Oct 2021 - 30 Sep 2022)

Restoration along the UCFR in western Montana includes removal of metal-laden floodplain soils, lowering of the floodplain to its original elevation, and re-vegetation of over 70 km of the river’s floodplain closest to contaminant sources. The UCFR LTREB project includes bi-weekly water quality monitoring across the first 200 km of the river and its major tributaries along a gradient of heavy metal contamination associated with historic mining. Monitoring includes inorganic phosphorus and nitrogen concentrations, biotic standing stocks, and dissolved and whole-water heavy metal concentrations. The monitoring program began in 2017 with funding extended through 2028. The original analytical intent for these data was to assess the response of river dissolved organic carbon to the floodplain restoration. Data are primarily Aurora Total Organic Carbon combustion analyses of the concentration of organic carbon dissolved in filtered samples of well-mixed river thalweg water. A few samples from the final campaign in the dataset were analyzed with a Shimadzu instrument using a similar method. Data are from the 2022 water year (1 Oct 2021 to 30 Sep 2022) from samples collected on the Upper Clark Fork River (USGS HUC 17010201) at project sites distributed along the river from the vicinity of Anaconda to Missoula, Montana, USA.

Bird and forest communities in a northern Michigan jack pine stand before and after logging, 2013-2018

This package contains data associated with documentation of breeding-season bird communities in a dry, jack pine and mixed red pine-jack pine forest in Marquette Co., MI. In addition to repeated surveys, 2014-2018, of bird presence in a network of 45 study plots, the package includes vegetation data collected on the same plots 2013-2017. At initiation of the study, the stand was >100 years old and had experienced little or no active management. During the study period, stands were thinned to reduce fire risk, and most jack pine were cut; three plots fell in a control area with no logging. Bird communities and vegetation were sampled repeatedly before and after management activities. Subsequent to the study period, a managed burn affected much of the study area.

Data for: Simulated postfire tree regeneration suggests reorganization of Greater Yellowstone forests during the 21st century

Tree regeneration underpins forest resilience, but how postfire tree regeneration will change with future climate and fire regimes is difficult to anticipate. Areas of sparse and failed postfire tree regeneration have been documented in western US forests, but how future recovery pathways will unfold is uncertain. We conducted a simulation study in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE; United States) using a process-based model, iLand, to ask how rates, composition, and spatial patterns of postfire tree regeneration vary with 21st-century climate. Subalpine forest and fire dynamics were simulated through 2100 under four climate scenarios, 2 × 2 factorial of aridity (wet and dry) and temperature (warm and hot), in five GYE landscapes. We tallied postfire tree seedling density by species in simulated fires (> 400 ha) at five years postfire. This data set contains three data sets to reproduce analyses for changes rates of regeneration, proportion of burned cells with regeneration failure, and postfire reorganization pathways. We include the data and R scripts used for these three analyses in the publication associated with these data.

Time series of carbon dioxide fluxes measured with eddy covariance for Danjiangkou Reservoir in Hubei Province, China during 2022-2024

This dataset contains half-hourly micrometeorological and eddy covariance flux measurements of carbon dioxide (CO₂) collected over the water surface of the Danjiangkou Reservoir in Hubei Province, China, from April 2022 to November 2024. The eddy covariance tower was installed at the deepest point of the reservoir, which serves as a critical water source for water supply and regional ecological functions in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River. Measurements were obtained using a LI-COR eddy covariance system (LI-COR Biosciences, Lincoln, NE, USA), and fluxes were calculated using EddyPro software (version 7.0.6). The dataset includes CO₂ and CH₄ fluxes as well as supporting micrometeorological, radiation, and water temperature measurements. All data were processed following established best practices for eddy covariance measurements, including comprehensive quality assurance and quality control procedures, which are fully documented and included with the dataset.

Long-term demographic dataset for Cladonia perforata, including fine-scale cover, occupancy, and subpopulation area data, 2011-2024

This dataset includes all data pertaining to a long-term demographic study of Cladonia perforata (perforate reindeer lichen), a federally endangered lichen endemic to Florida, including fine-scale cover, occupancy, and population area data, conducted by the Archbold Biological Station Plant Ecology Program. This includes 13 years of data (2011-2024) from nine subpopulation (including seven at Archbold Biological Station, and two at the Lake Wales Ridge Wildlife and Environmental Area, Royce Unit), all located in rosemary scrub habitat within the Lake Wales Ridge metapopulation. This study sought to characterize the fire ecology and long-term population trends for the species, and thus also includes data on prescribed burn severity and time since fire. Data were collected using a stratified random plot design, with occupancy plots (presence/absence within 1.5 meter radius) throughout the subpopulation and a subset of these designated as cover plots only, with this cover data collected as point intercept hits within a 48x48cm area. Cover data also includes microhabitat data – canopy cover in densiometer reading and dominant ground cover. Cover and occupancy data were taken every 3 years for each subpopulation (subpopulations were on different yearly schedules). Subpopulation area was mapped using a submeter GPS unit every 6 years. Subpopulations were resampled for all metrics as soon as possible following a fire, and the sampling schedule was then reset.

2021-2024 Juvenile Chinook Salmon Rearing and Growth on the Lower American River, California

The primary goal of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act is to at least double natural production of Chinook Salmon ( Oncorhynchus tshawytscha ) in California Central Valley (CCV) streams on a sustainable basis. Beginning in 2008, semi-annual gravel augmentation and off channel habitat enhancement projects were implemented on the Lower American River (LAR) by Reclamation and USFWS, in partnership with the Sacramento Water Forum, as part of the LAR habitat enhancement program. The overall vision for the habitat enhancement program is to restore ecosystem processes by rehabilitating and enhancing critical channel, floodplain, and riparian habitats for juvenile and adult anadromous salmonids, thus promoting the recovery of healthy and diverse Chinook Salmon and steelhead ( O. mykiss ) populations. Off channel rearing habitat has been identified as a limiting factor in meeting CCV salmon population goals. While numerous studies have documented positive relationships between off channel habitat and juvenile rearing on the LAR, it is not known how long juveniles remain in off channel habitat compared with the main channel, whether rearing in off channel habitat enhances growth compared with the main channel, whether the relative value of off channel habitat for juvenile production depends on how long it has been inundated, or whether juvenile diet in off channel habitat differs from that in the main channel. To better understand these relationships, we conducted a mark-recapture study under a range of hydrological conditions between 2021-2024 using passive integrated transponder (PIT) tagged wild juvenile Chinook Salmon coupled with seining surveys at five off channel restoration sites on the LAR designed for rearing, as well as nearby main channel control sites that were also suitable rearing habitat. First, we investigated whether side channel habitats in restored reaches support higher Chinook Salmon densities than main channel control habitats. Density was estim
