Summary

This dataset provides nine tables of data from an experimental study in which juvenile Coho Salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were reared in floating net pens (limnocorrals) and exposed to Elodea spp. (a potential invasive species in high latititude lakes) and native aquatic vegetation. Data include: (1) coho salmon body, otolith, and stable isotope measurements, (2) abundance of macroinvertebrates, (3) zooplankton, (4) periphyton, (5) aquatic vegetation, (7) measurement of chlorphyll A, (8) dissolved oxygen, and (9) water temperature.
