Three SAS code files were used to analyze data for this study and they included: 1) code to compare the weight of fish distributed to the tanks, 2) code to compare the survival of fish by treatment groups, and 3) code to analyze the weight and condition of fish at exposure termination.
We applied Zequanox using a custom-engineered, boat mounted application system to replicated 0.30 Hectare plots within a small inland lake. The objectives of these applications were to determine if uncontained, open-water Zequanox applications could effectively control zebra mussel populations and protect native unionid mussel populations within zebra mussel infested systems. The datasets included are as follows: Exposure Water Chemistry Hardness and Alkalinity Native Mussel Sonde Water Chemistry Zebra Mussel Density Zebra Mussel Length Zebra Mussel Mortality Zequanox Concentration ShapeFiles: PLOTS, UNIONID, ZEQUANOX CONCENTRATION, ZM_DENSITY, ZM_MORTALITY

This dataset contains the supplementary data to the dataset entitled "Assessments of the binary mixtures of four toxicants on Zebra Mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) mortality." These data describe the exposure conditions to include water chemistry before, during, and after exposures as well as mussel condition throughout the study. Monitored water chemistry parameters include dissolved oxygen, temperature, and pH. Periodic measurements of alkalinity, total hardness, and specific conductance where taken before each exposure period. Mussel condition was also assessed at the initiation of each exposure. Mussel condition included shell length and tissue dry weight.
Five R Markdown files (.Rmd) were created for the study entitled: Assessments of the binary mixtures of four toxicants on Zebra Mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) mortality. R codes were used to determine toxicant mixture ratios, summarize data, and analyze dose-response relationships in single toxicant and toxicant mixture trials. Files are described in the readme file in the order in which they were used for the study. Each R Markdown file has a complimentary R Script file (.R) with the same file name. All R Markdown files were created in RStudio version 1.2.1335 with R version 3.6.1 and Tidyverse version 1.3.0. Additional packages are listed in braces, “{},” with the corresponding R Markdown description.
