Summary

This dataset records Cladophora and associated benthic algae, collectively Cladophora community or submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV), biomass collected during the growing season of 2021 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 PAR, temperature, specific conductivity, turbidity, pH, phycocyanin, [...]

Purpose

The purpose of this data collection was to assess live Cladophora community abundance in nearshore areas of the Great Lakes with suitable substrate and factors associated with Cladophora community growth, including dreissenid mussels, phosphorus availability, and physical conditions. Sites were selected for this purpose, and supporting data were collected to aid in interpretation of Cladophora community patterns.
