Fitness Impacts of Zebra Mussel Colonization on Benthic Invertebrates The impacts of Zebra Mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) colonization of Larval Dragonflies (Macromia illinoiensis) and snails (Campeloma decisum) was investigated using lipid as an indicator of health and excess reserves. Dragonflies and Snails were censused randomly and a collection of individuals...
Clam and Zebra Mussel Measurements for North Fishtail and South Fishtail Bay of Douglas Lake This data was collected to compare clam mass, length, thickness and zebra mussel coverage and mass between North Fishtail and South Fishtail Bay.
Douglas Lake Water Profiles 1970 - 2001 Temperature, dissolved oxygen and percent saturation water profiles for two sites (South Fishtail Bay and Pells Island) within Douglas Lake, MI. This is a portion of the extensive data collected by Dr. Owen Lind over the last 5 decades.
Light extinction data for Douglas Lake, MI Light extinction data from one day - June 25th, 1991 - at two sites within Douglas Lake.
Secchi Depth Readings for Douglas Lake Secchi depth readings for South Fishtail Bay, Douglas Lake, MI taken by associates of the University of Michigan Biological Station (UMBS). First reading is from 1925 but sampling intensity increases in the 1970's. Values range from 2.25 m to 7 m.
Response of zebra mussel attachment activities at three water temperature regimes These data quantify zebra mussel attachment to conspecifics and unionids under experimentally manipulated water temperatures at 24 hour periods. Experiments were conducted at University of Michigan Biological Station's Lakeside Laboratory using organisms collected from Douglas Lake.
Mass of zebra mussels attached to freshwater mussels (Unionidae) at sites in Douglas Lake and Larks Lake Surveys were conducted to identify the mass of zebra mussels attached to individual native. Colonized mussels were identified to species and morphological measurements of the were also taken. Surveys were conducted in Douglas Lake and Larks Lake in the summer of 2012.
Aquatic vegetation survey data for Douglas Lake 2012 Data represent a vegetation survey of the north and western portion of Douglas Lake, MI in summer of 2012. The survey identified approximately 21 native plant species and one non-native plant species. Relative abundance was quantified at two scales, 1) abundance of a each species relative to other...
