Summary

This environmental dataset consists of 56 sediment, 24 Cladophora and 22 water samples collected from beaches at Glen Haven, Good Harbor, Platte Bay and Esch road beach, located within The Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Leelanau and Benzie counties, Michigan. The dataset includes matrix type, location, data, time and the qPCR reported value for each sample collected.

Purpose

The current study goal was to improve understanding of the factors (beach characteristics, environmental factors and lake hydrodynamics) related to C. botulinum type E occurrence by analysis of samples collected from Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore beaches. The objectives of this study were to 1) identify the temporal and spatial variability of C. botulinum type E in onshore Cladophora, water and sediment samples from multiple SLBE beaches, and 2) determine the relationships between environmental data and detection of the bontE gene at different sampling sites, in order to evaluate the potential pathways of C. botulinum to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park.
