Summary

This dataset accompanies the article "Upstream experience and experimental translocation of invasive bigheaded carps results in increased upstream passage success at a navigation lock in a large river". The data come from the experimental capture and tagging of invasive bigheaded carp with acoustic transmitters and physically moving some groups farther downstream. These transmitters emit signals that are detected and recorded on receivers that are strategically placed above, within, and below Mississippi River Lock and Dam 19 (LD 19). Once the data from the receivers were downloaded, we could show when successful upstream passage through LD19 occurs and compare the origin of the fish and the physical characteristics recorded at the [...]

Purpose

These data were collected through multi-agency efforts. Experimental tagging of fish has many benefits to understanding behavior and migration patterns. In this study, fish origin was shown to influence upstream passage success and physically translocating fish around barriers may be an important consideration for fish passage studies and deterrent evaluations.
