Summary

The data presented include concentrations of 122 organic, 23 inorganic constituents, and estrogenicity in water collected from 13 off-stream non-point source sites (natural and created wetlands) and eight on-stream point source sites (streams and impoundments) in the New Jersey Pinelands, 2017-2020. Native and non-native fish health data collected from the on-stream sites as well as native frog data collected from the off-stream sites are also included. For the on-stream point-source component, we analyzed water chemistry, hormone activity, and collected native and non-native fish from two locations upstream and one downstream from two municipal wastewater treatment plants (six total sites) and from two minimally impacted locations [...]

Purpose

The data were collected to assess water chemistry, the health of native and non-native fish species and native frogs at on- and off-stream locations with potential point and non-point sources of organic and inorganic constituents. Data at the impacted locations will also be compared to appropriate reference sites.
