This dataset is from a study of a simulated angling tournament livewell holding in June of 2023 on Largemouth Bass (Micropterus nigricans) on Clinton Lake, Illinois. Fish were collected via electrofishing, weighed, measured and assessed for physical injury prior to receiving a commercially available cull tag and being placed in a simulated livewell. After a six hour livewell holding period, fish were removed from the livewell assessed for physical injury and then assessed for reflex action mortality predictors prior to being placed in a net pen for 3 days of observation. This dataset includes, weights, total lengths, physical injury scores, and reflex action mortality predictor scores for Largemouth Bass and water quality parameters of livewells and the lake in net pens.

A population genetics study was conducted on three plant taxa in the genus Physaria that are found on the Kaibab Plateau (Arizona, USA). Physaria kingii subsp. kaibabensis is endemic to the Kaibab Plateau, and is of conservation concern because of its rarity, limited range, and potential threats to its long-term persistence. Additionally, the taxon is a candidate for federal protection under the Endangered Species Act. It was not clear how genetically isolated P. k. subsp. kaibabensis was from Physaria kingii subsp. latifolia, which is a widespread subspecies found throughout the southwestern USA, including on the Kaibab Plateau. Additionally, other authors have suggested that P. k. subsp. kaibabensis may hybridize with Physaria arizonica, a different species that is also widespread and found on and off the Kaibab Plateau. We conducted a population genetics study of all three groups to better determine the conservation status of P. k. subsp. kaibabensis. Genetic data are in the form of nuclear DNA microsatellites for 13 loci (all apparently diploid). Additionally, we have included location information for the collection sites. We collected tissue samples from on and off the Kaibab Plateau. The overall findings are shared in a manuscript being submitted for peer-review.

The Morrow Plots at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign are the longest-running continuous experimental plots in the Americas. In continuous operation since 1876, the plots were established to explore the impact of crop rotation and soil treatment on corn crop yields. In 2018, The Morrow Plots Data Curation Working Group began to identify, collect and curate the various data records created over the history of the experiment. The resulting data table published here includes planting, treatment and yield data for the Morrow Plots since 1888. Please see the included codebook for a detailed explanation of the data sources and their content. This dataset will be updated as new yield data becomes available. *NOTE: While digitized and accessed through IDEALS, the physical copy of the field notebook: <a href="https://archon.library.illinois.edu/archives/index.php?p=collections/controlcard&id=11846">Morrow Plots Notebook, 1876-1913, 1967</a> is also held at the University of Illinois Archives.

This data set is related to the SoyFACE experiments, which are open-air agricultural climate change experiments that have been conducted since 2001. The fumigation experiments take place at the SoyFACE farm and facility in Champaign County, Illinois during the growing season of each year, typically between June and October. This V4 contains new experimental data files, hourly fumigation files, and weather/ambient files for 2022 and 2023, since the original dataset only included files for 2001-2021. The MATLAB code has also been updated for efficiency, and explanatory files have been updated accordingly. Below are new changes in V4: - The "SoyFACE Plot Information 2001 to 2021" file is renamed to “SoyFACE ring information 2001 to 2023.xlsx”. Data for 2022 and 2023 were added. File contains information about each year of the SoyFACE experiments, including the fumigation treatment type (CO2, O3, or a combination treatment), the crop species, the plots (also referred to as 'rings' and labeled with numbers between 2 and 31) used in each experiment, important experiment dates, and the target concentration levels or 'setpoints' for CO2 and O3 in each experiment. - The "SoyFACE 1-Minute Fumigation Data Files" were updated to contain sub-folders for each year of the experiments (2001-2023), each of which contains sub-folders for each ring used in that year's experiments. This data set also includes hourly data files for the fumigation experiments ("SoyFACE Hourly Fumigation Data Files" folder) created from the 1-minute files, and hourly ambient/weather data files for each year of the experiments ("Hourly Weather and Ambient Data Files" folder which has also been updated to include 2022 and 2023 data). The ambient CO2 and O3 data are collected at SoyFACE, and the weather data are collected from the SURFRAD and WARM weather stations located near the SoyFACE farm. - “Rings.xlsx” is new in this version. This file lists the rings and treatments used in each year of the SoyFACE experiments between 2001 and 2023 and is used in several of the MATLAB codes. - “CMI Weather Data Explanation.docx” is newly added. This file contains specific information about the processing of raw weather data, which is used in the hourly weather and ambient data files. - Files that were in RAR format in V3 are now updated and saved as ZIP format, including: Hourly Weather and Ambient Data Files.zip , SoyFACE 1-Minute Fumigation Data Files.zip , SoyFACE Hourly Fumigation Data Files.zip, and Matlab Files.zip. - The "Fumigation Target Percentages" file was updated to add data for 2022 and 2023. This file shows how much of the time the CO2 and O3 fumigation levels are within a 10 or 20 percent margin of the target levels when the fumigation system is turned on. - The "Matlab Files" folder contains custom code (Aspray, E.K.) that was used to clean the "SoyFACE 1-Minute Fumigation Data" files and to generate the "SoyFACE Hourly Fumigation Data" and "Fumigation Target Percentages" files. Code information can be found in the various "Explanation" files. The Matlab code changes are as follows: 1. “Data_Issues_Finder.m” code was changed to use the “Ring.xlsx” file to gather ring and treatment information based on the contents of the file rather than being hardcoded in the Matlab code itself. 2. “Data_Issues_Finder_all.m” code is new. This code is the same as the “Data_Issues_Finder.m” code except that it identifies all CO2 and O3 repeats. In contrast, the “Data_Issues_Finder.m” code only identifies CO2 and O3 repeats that occur when the fumigation system is turned on. 3. “Target_Yearly.m” code was changed to use the “Ring.xlsx” file to gather ring and treatment information based on the contents of the file rather than being hardcoded in the Matlab code itself. 4. “HourlyFumCode.m” code is new. This code uses the “Rings.xlsx” file to gather ring and treatment information based on the contents of the file instead of the user needing to define these values explicitly. This code also defines a list of all ring folders for the year selected and runs the hourly code for each ring, instead of the user having to run the hourly code for each ring individually. Finally, the code generates two dialog boxes for the user, one which allows user to specify whether they want the hourly code to be run for 1-minute fumigation files or 1-minute ambient files, and another which allows user to specify whether they would like the hourly fumigation averages to be replaced with hourly ambient averages when the fumigation system is turned off. 5. “HourlyDataFun.m” code was changed to run either “HourlyData.m” code or “HourlyDataAmb.m” code, depending on user input in the first dialog box. 6. “HourlyData.m” code was changed to replace hourly fumigation averages with hourly ambient averages when the fumigation system is turned off, depending on user input in the second dialog box. 7. “HourlyDataAmb.m” code is new. This code is similar to “HourlyData.m” code but is used to calculate hourly averages for 1-minute ambient files instead 1-minute fumigation files. 8. “batch.m” code was changed to account for new function input variables in “HourlyDataFun.m” code, along with adding header columns for “FumOutput.xlsx” and “AmbOutput.xlsx” output files generated by “HourlyData.m” and “HourlyDataAmb.m” code. - Finally, the " * Explanation" files contain information about the column names, units of measurement, steps needed to use Matlab code, and other pertinent information for each data file. Some of them have been updated to reflect the current change of data.

Data associated with the manuscript "Stable isotopes and diet metabarcoding reveal trophic overlap between native and invasive Banded Killifish (Fundulus diaphanus) subspecies." by Jordan H. Hartman, Mark A. Davis, Nicholas J. Iacaruso, Jeremy S. Tiemann, Eric R. Larson. For this project, we sampled six locations in Michigan and Illinois for Eastern and Western Banded Killifish and primary consumers. Using stable isotope analysis we found that Eastern Banded Killifish had higher variance in littoral dependence and trophic position than Western Banded Killifish, but both stable isotope and gut content metabarcoding analyses revealed an overlap in the diet composition and trophic position between the subspecies. This dataset provides the sampling locations, accession numbers for gut content metabarcoding data from the National Center for Biotechnology Information Sequence Read Archive, the assignment of each family used in the gut content metabarcoding analysis as littoral, pelagic, terrestrial, or parasite. and the raw stable isotope data from University of California Davis.

This data and code accompany the manuscript "Small population size and possible extirpation of the threatened Malagasy poison frog Mantella cowanii". The data were collected using photograph capture-recapture at three sites in the central highlands of Madagascar. In Part 1, the script implements robust design capture-mark-recapture models in program MARK through the RMark interface to estimate population sizes and annual survival probabilities. In Part 2, it estimates the number of surveys needed to infer absence at sites where we did not detect the frog.

The use of potentially beneficial microorganisms in agriculture (microbial inoculants) has rapidly accelerated in recent years. For microbial inoculants to be effective as agricultural tools, these organisms must be able to survive and persist in novel environments while not destabilizing the resident community or spilling over into adjacent natural ecosystems. Here, we adapt a macroecological propagule pressure model to a microbial scale and present an experimental approach for testing the role of propagule pressure in microbial inoculant introductions. We experimentally determined the risk-release relationship for an IAA-expressing Pseudomonas simiae inoculant in a model monocot system. We then used this relationship to simulate establishment outcomes under a range of application frequencies (propagule number) and inoculant concentrations (propagule size). Our simulations show that repeated inoculant applications may increase establishment, even when increased inoculant concentration does not alter establishment probabilities. The dataset filed here includes the experimemtal datafile, and a RMarkdown file that includes all the code used in in both the modeling and anaylsis.
