Samples were collected from Willow Creek Lake approximately monthly during May through September by the Nebraska Department of Environmental Quality as a part of the Ambient Lake Monitoring Program since at least 1989. Lake samples were analyzed for several constituents, including nutrients and chlorophyll. Though several different station identification numbers have been used over the course of monitoring, the general location of sampling corresponds to the deep site referenced in Rus and others (2018).
This dataset records Cladophora and associated submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV) biomass collected approximately monthly during the growing season of 2019 at stations located along the U.S. shoreline of Lakes Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario. It also records a variety of supporting data collected at Cladophora measurement stations. These supporting data include: - seasonal time series of light, currents, wave action, temperature, specific conductivity, turbidity, pH, phycocyanin, chlorophyll, and dissolved oxygen from moored sensors at a subset of stations; - measurements of Secchi disk depth and water chemistry; - water column profiles of temperature, specific conductivity, turbidity, pH, phycocyanin, chlorophyll,...

Chemistry data were collected or compiled from stream water, lake water, and groundwater. Stream water samples were collected more frequently to capture the range of streamflow conditions. Discretely collected samples were analyzed for nitrogen content (total Kjeldahl nitrogen and nitrate plus nitrite nitrogen) and phosphorus (total phosphorus and phosphate as phosphorus). A subset of samples were analyzed for nitrogen and oxygen isotopes associated with nitrate and phosphate, respectively, to identify nutrient sources in Willow Creek Lake.
The retention or release of nutrients into the water column from sediment, also known as internal loading, is another source of nutrients to the lake water column. Sediment cores collected from Willow Creek Lake in September 2013 and June 2014 were incubated for 7 days to assess potential for sediment to produce or consume water column phosphorus under aerobic (oxic) and anaerobic (anoxic) conditions using techniques similar to Penn and others (2000); the oxic conditions served as a control and the anoxic conditions represented typical lake sediment environments. Phosphate as phosphorus and total dissolved phosphorus release rates (milligrams phosphorus per square meter per day) were estimated by dividing the change...

High frequency water-quality measurements were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey within Willow Creek Reservoir located in Heppner, Oregon. All measurements were taken at 1.5 feet below the surface with a YSI EXO2 multiparameter sonde. Information collected include location, time, water temperature, pH, specific conductance, dissolved oxygen, total chlorophyll, blue-green algae phycocyanin, and turbidity. The measurements were collected while boating around the reservoir at about 2.5 miles per hour.

A camera was deployed to monitor cyanobacterial surface blooms occurring in Willow Creek Reservoir in Heppner, Oregon. The camera was positioned above the water and facing downwards to achieve the desired contrast in colors. With the appropriate permissions from USACE, the camera was attached to a railing of the Willow Creek Dam in the northwest corner of the reservoir about 70 feet above the surface of the water. The system was powered by a solar panel and large battery. The camera was programmed to take a series of 5 pictures from different angles every 15 minutes during daylight hours. During 2015, the camera was installed on May 14 and retrieved on November 9. A polarizing lens specific to the Axis 214 camera...

As harmful algal blooms (HABs) increase in magnitude and duration worldwide, they are becoming an expanding threat to marine wildlife. Over the past decade, domoic acid (DA) and saxitoxin (STX) have been increasingly problematic bicoastally in the United States. We investigated pooled seabird mortality data from opportunistic sampling events between 2007-2018, across three states, to examine the patterns and role of DA and STX in seabird mortality events from the continental United States. Patterns in DA and STX levels and affected tissue type were reviewed, and two specific accounts of localized and pervasive event types were examined. There has been increased toxin detection with expanded tissue testing during...

Streamflow was measured at the three largest inflows (the Foster, NT, and ST sites) of Willow Creek Lake and at the outflow of the lake. Flow data were typically available at a 15-minute frequency, but generally were summarized as daily means. Flow data for the Foster, NT, and outflow sites were provided by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources (NDNR) and were estimated using stage-flow relations applied to measured stage following protocols described by Kennedy (1983). Flow at the ST site was measured by the U.S. Geological Survey using an indirect rating curve with water levels monitored continuously by a submersible pressure transducer and periodic streamflow measurements collected using a Parshall flume...
This dataset records Cladophora and associated benthic algae, collectively Cladophora community or submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV), biomass collected during the growing season of 2020 at stations located along the U.S. shoreline of Lakes Michigan, Huron, and Erie. It also records a variety of supporting data collected at Cladophora measurement stations. These supporting data include: - measurements of Secchi disk depth and water chemistry; - water column profiles of temperature, specific conductivity, turbidity, pH, phycocyanin, chlorophyll, and dissolved oxygen; - diver observations of SAV, dreissenid mussels, round goby abundance, and substrate properties; - measurements of dreissenid mussel abundance and size...

Flow interaction between Willow Creek Lake and groundwater was calculated from a lake water balance (Healy and others, 2007) in which all of the other flow components were either measured or estimated between 2012 and 2014 (as described in Rus and others, 2018) and the interaction was the residual term. Inflow terms consisted of streamflow at three sites (Foster, NT, and ST) as well as the direct precipitation onto the lake. Measured outflow terms consisted of the streamflow at the outflow site and the direct evaporation from the lake. Increases in lake storage had the same effect on the water balance as an outflow. All components of the water balance were tabulated on a daily basis and converted to units of acre-feet...

Daily measurements of Willow Creek Lake water storage were provided by the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources for 2012–14. These water levels were used in conjunction with a table (provided by the Lower Elkhorn Natural Resources District) relating lake storage volume to surface area. From these, daily estimates of surface area were derived for the lake.
Genus-level taxonomic data of the phytoplankton community were collected from Willow Creek Lake near Pierce, Nebraska in 2013–14. Algal cell concentration and biomass data also were recorded.
This dataset describes the identification of phytoplankton to the lowest taxonomic level (typically species), as well as abundance (density) and biovolume from grab samples collected from Lake Michigan at Jackson Park at Hyde Park, Illinois and Lake Michigan at Jeorse Park at Gary, Indiana.

Upper Klamath Lake, located in southern Oregon, is a hypereutrophic lake where cyanobacterial blooms, dominated by Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), occur every summer. The decay of excess biomass after AFA senescence leads to problematic water quality conditions including high pH ( > 9) and anoxia. Water samples from the photic zone and bottom of the water column, and the flocculation layer of the bottom sediments were collected weekly at four sites within Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon during summer 2016. This data release reports the chemical and microbiological analysis of these samples.
