dataset_eml_abstractheader

    The Winter Fish Ecology project was carried out by Benjamin Block as part of his Master's Thesis research. This repository through UVM FEMC will make raw data, supporting the research and subsequent publications, publicly available. In addition to raw data, we have provided a draft of our manuscript to describe how the data were collected, processed, and analyzed. A README file has also been included to provide descriptions of each dataset.

    • dataset_eml_datatabledescription: This file contains all information on fish collection and processing. All demographic data are included in this file. Any empty cells are where data for a given sample were not measured or recorded. Below are descriptions of certain variables: Species: BG - Bluegill; PS - Pumpkinseed; YP - Yellow perch TL (mm): Total length of each fish WT (g): Mass in grams of each fish Condition factor: Fulton's Condition Factor calculated for each fish Otolith (y/n): Whether otoliths were successfully recovered from a fish GSI: Gonadosomatic index calculated for each fish Alum. Tray weight (g): Weight of aluminum sample trays. Dry weight subsample (g) included the Alum. Tray weight, therefore, the tray weight needed to be subtracted. Wet weight subsampe (g): Fish homogenate was weighed before drying (used to estimate predator energy density - see bioenergetics model methods in paper) Dry weight subsample (g): Fish homogenate was weighed after drying (used to estimate predator energy density - see bioenergetics model methods in paper)
