North Temperate Lakes LTER: Pelagic Macroinvertebrate Summary 1983 - current (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)

General Information

Data Package:
Local Identifier:	edi.365.1
Title:	North Temperate Lakes LTER: Pelagic Macroinvertebrate Summary 1983 - current (Reformatted to the ecocomDP Design Pattern)
Alternate Identifier:	DOI PLACE HOLDER
Abstract:	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/14/32. The abstract below was extracted from the Level 0 data package and is included for context: This is a summary of dataset NTL 13. Derived data include the mean and standard deviation of the number of each species captured as well as the mean and standard deviation of the density of individuals on both an areal and volumetric basis. Five vertical tows are done at the deepest point of each of the seven primary lakes in the Trout Lake area (Allequash, Big Muskellunge, Crystal, Sparkling, and Trout lakes and bog lakes 27-02 [Crystal Bog], and 12-15 [Trout Bog]) using a 1-mm mesh net with a 1-m wide mouth. On Trout Lake four additional sites are sampled, where depths are approximately at 10 m, 15 m, 20 m, and 25 m respectively, with three tows done at each site. Trout Lake was the only lake sampled in 2020. All samples are taken in darkness. Samples are preserved and counted, yielding numbers caught. These night tows target the large invertebrate planktivore component of the pelagic zooplankton community. Sampling Frequency: annually Number of sites: 11

Data Entities
Data Table Name:	observation
Description:	This is the core table, which holds the observations being analyzed (e.g. organism abundance or density). Observations must be linked to a taxon and to a location. Linking to ancillary observations (via observation_id) is optional. The event_id column is a placeholder that will link to a sampling events model in the future.
Data Table Name:	observation_ancillary
Description:	Ancillary information about an observational event for context, but that are not about the organism or sampling location (e.g. water depth, height of a tower, temperature of medium). These are very often environmental driver data in analyses.
Data Table Name:	location
Description:	Identifying information about a place (lonitude, latitude, elevation). The table is self-referencing so that sites can be nested.
Data Table Name:	taxon
Description:	Identifying information about a taxon (e.g. name, id and system).
Data Table Name:	dataset_summary
Description:	Summary info about the dataset.
Data Table Name:	variable_mapping
Description:	Information linking a variable_name used in a table to an external definition.
Other Name:	create_ecocomDP
Description:	A function for converting knb-lter-ntl.14 to ecocomDP

Description:

This data package conforms to the Ecological Community Data Pattern (ecocomDP) developed by the Environmental Data Initiative. The scripts used to convert the source data package to ecocomDP are published with this derived data package. Any questions about this data package should be directed to the first person listed under contacts.

Description:

Number of individuals per square meter are calculated based on the opening of the net: 3.14159*0.25, and individuals per cubic meter are then devided by the meter depth where towing starts.
Taxonomic groups counted: Chaoborus spp. (differentiating between larvae and pupae), Leptodora kinditi, Mysis relicta, and Bythotrephes longimanus.
Sampling takes place at the deep hole in all lakes, in Trout Lakes 4 additional sites are sampled based on water depth not latitude/longitude along a transect from the deep hole to Rocky Reef point. Thus each lake has five samples collected, except Trout Lake, which has 17 total samples.

Description:

This method step describes provenance-based metadata as specified in the LTER EML Best Practices.

Geographic Region:

Description:

Crystal Bog (27-2) is located within the Northern Highland-American Legion State Forest, Vilas County. It is a small and shallow bog lake. It has a surface area of 0.5 hectare, mostly undeveloped shoreline and a maximum depth of 2.5 meters. Bog lakes are isolated to a large extent from surrounding groundwater flow systems. However, they exhibit a similar pattern, across landscapes, to that exhibited by other lakes in general. The proportional input of groundwater to the bogs' hydrologic inputs increases with decreasing elevation in the landscape. More detailed studies of Crystal Bog reveal a complex interplay between conditions in the lake and in the surrounding wetland due to the groundwater flow regime and resulting chemical transfers. /** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Surface Area (km2) : 0.006/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Mean Depth (m) : 1.7/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Maximum Depth (m) : 2.5/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Volume (m3) : 10,200/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Shoreline Length (km) : 0.285/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Development on shoreline : low/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Landscape Position : high/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Duration of ice cover (days) : 152/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Water Temperature (C) : 19.9/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ pH : 5.2/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ ANC (µeq/L) : 14/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Conductivity (µS/cm) : 11/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Total P (µg/l) : 18.2/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Total N (µg/l) : 722/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ SiO2 (µg/l) : 834/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Secchi Depth (m) : 1.5/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Chlorophyll (µg/l) : 9.9/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Number of fish species : 1

Description:

Crystal Lake is located within the Northern Highland-American Legion State Forest, Vilas County. It is a seepage lake with predominantly sand substrate. It has a surface area of 36.7 hectare, 2.3 kilometers of mostly undeveloped (campground) developed shoreline and a maximum depth of 20.4 meters. Crystal Lake represents one extreme in the groundwater input gradient, with a marked predominance of precipitation inputs. Groundwater accounts for only 5% of input water, yet, because groundwater is more concentrated chemically than precipitation, groundwater accounts for substantial amounts of incoming solutes. For example, about 50% of the silica budget comes into the lake via groundwater, exerting a major influence on primary production. The lake is an oligotrophic, dimictic lake high in the landscape with minimal groundwater input, a light attenuation coefficient of 0.24 per meter (average ice-free Secchi depth of 8 m), a mean depth of 11.4 m, and a maximum depth of 20.4 m. Crystal Lake is circular with a shoreline development factor very close to 1.0. The littoral zone is fairly homogenous and is dominated by sandy substrate with low macrophyte and coarse woody habitat densities. The fish community has been historically dominated by pelagic yellow perch. However, yellow perch drastically declined after the detection of rainbow smelt in 1985. /** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Surface area (km2) : 0.375/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Mean Depth (m) : 10.4/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Maximum Depth (m) : 20.4/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Volume (m3) : 3,900,000/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Shoreline Length (km) : 2.3/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Development on shoreline : low (campground)/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Landscape Position : high/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Catchment Area (km2) : 0.8625/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Residence Time : 12.7/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Duration of ice cover (days) : 138/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Water Temperature (C) : 21.0/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ pH : 6.1/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ ANC (µeq/L) : 23/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Conductivity (µS/cm) : 13/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Total P (µg/l) : 8.3/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Total N (µg/l) : 210/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ SiO2 (µg/l) : 48/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Secchi Depth (m) : 7.5/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Chlorophyll (µg/l) : 1.8/** * @file * * Site Details template. * Template does not have a surrounding XML element. */ Number of fish species : 24
