Field-based methods for evaluating the annual maximum specific conductivity tolerated by freshwater invertebrates
Description
Data includes chemical and biological samples from Ecoregion 69 in West Virginia. eco69_dupchem.csv: 1. Station-year with at least 6 conductivity samples, one in the spring and one in the summer. bio.sample69.csv: Final Criteria dataset for ecoregion 69 by excluding: 1. Non-biology samples, 2. Removed no-conductivity record; 4. removed pH <=6 samples; 5. removed high Cl sites (SO4+HCO3 < CL). ss.csv: Source:WVDEP Crosstabed genus X sample matrix for Ecoregion 69 and 70. 1. Remove ambiguous taxa; 2. Remove non-reference taxa in these two ecoregions in WV data set.
