This dataset contains Sr:Ca of water and fin ray samples of native fish to evaluate upstream fish passage through a navigation lock in the Des Plaines River (Brandon Roads Lock and Dam). Fin ray samples from several native fish taxa (catostomids, ictalurids, centrarchids, and lepisosteids) were collected in two river reaches downstream of Brandon Roads Lock and Dam, and in a river reach upstream of Brandon Roads Lock and Dam. Fin ray Sr:Ca derived from microchemistry analyses of fin ray materials from a laser ablation transect is included as both edge values and entire transect (including edge). Edge values of Sr:Ca were used to characterize chemical signatures of residency for each of the rivers and make comparisons...

This dataset includes otolith and water chemistry used for determining natal origins of individuals from six species. The dataset contains Sr:Ca and Ba:Ca of water samples for the Mississippi River and tributaries as well as otolith Sr, Ba, Mg values from fishes collected in navigation pools 4, 8, 13, and 26 of the Upper Mississippi River, as well as the Open River Reach of the Middle Mississippi River and the La Grange Pool of the Illinois River. Fishes included Bullhead Minnow, Emerald Shiner, Gizzard Shad, Bluegill, Orangespotted Sunfish, and Yellow Perch. Laser ablation inductively coupled mass spectrometry to quantify natal origins of these prey fish. Upwards of 50-75% of individuals at a given river reach...
Data set includes water Sr:Ca, Ba:Ca, and δ18O for the Mississippi River and tributaries, and otolith Sr:Ca, Ba:Ca, and δ18O data from bigheaded carp (Silver Carp and BIghead Carp) collected in navigation pools 16-19 of the Upper Mississippi River in 2016 to 2018. Bigheaded carp (Bighead Carp and Silver Carp) are invasive species in the US and have spread throughout most of the lower Mississippi River Basin. Population abundance upstream of Lock and Dam 19 (LD19) on the Upper Mississippi River (UMR) has likely been limited by the high-head dam at this location, which restricts all upstream fish passage to the lock chamber. To determine early-life environments of adult bigheaded carp captured upstream LD19 at the...

Natural assets such as soil, water, air, plants, and animals provide society with valuable ecosystem services. Ecosystem services can be broadly categorized as life-supporting services, including those that maintain water quality in streams and rivers, flood control, nutrient cycling, and regulation of atmospheric gases, or as life-fulfilling services such as expansion of wildlife habitat and biodiversity. This research investigates the management of life-supporting ecosystem services, which are frequently impaired by a wide variety of natural and anthropogenic activities in watersheds. More specifically, the work focuses on maintaining water quality in streams and rivers. Non-point source (NPS) pollution is the...

Because of concerns with the growing threat of global climate change from increasing emissions of greenhouse gases, the United States and other countries are implementing, by themselves or in cooperation with one or more other nations, climate change mitigation projects. These projects will reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions or sequester carbon, and will also result in non-GHG benefits (i.e., environmental, economic, and social benefits). Monitoring, evaluating, reporting, and verifying (MERV) guidelines are needed for these projects to accurately determine their net GHG, and other, benefits. Implementation of MERV guidelines is also intended to: (1) increase the reliability of data for estimating GHG benefits;...

Sicklefin and sturgeon chub in Missouri and Mississippi Rivers were petitioned and Species Status Assessments (SSA) are due by 2023. This project will characterize population structure using tissue samples collected and genetically analyzed to assess trend of populations throughout their range.Objectives are: 1) Describe population structuring (degree of genetic isolation or mixing) taken from species range 2) describe Effective Population Size (Ne) 3) Describe population trends. Samples provided by participating state wildlife agencies and federal agencies. Cost of sampling is subsidized by ongoing Missouri and Mississippi sampling.PI: Dr Ed Heist Edheist@siu.eduPI/Funding recipients organization: Southern Illinois...
