  • This dataset was used in the analysis described in the manuscript by Macuch, C. & J. Klug. 2020. High-Frequency Temperature and Oxygen Data Reveal the Potential for Stressful Fish Conditions in a Southern New England Impoundment. Northeastern Naturalist 27(3): 520-533.

    We include high-frequency dissolved oxygen and water temperature data from Lake Lillinonah in Northeastern North America. These data were collected using in situ, automated monitoring sensors deployed each year into the lake in the spring or early summer months. Data were collected from 07 July 2011 through 14 October 2015. These data were used to assess conditions in the lake as they relate to specific stress thresholds for Northern Pike and Largemouth Bass. We found that summer water temperature was nearly always in an acceptable range for Largemouth Bass growth but was frequently in the stressful range for Northern Pike growth. Dissolved oxygen data show consistent hypoxia at the bottom of the lake during some summers, reducing the potential thermal refuge.
