Summary
This data release presents the results of analyses of biota and water samples collected on multiple dates from 2007 to 2014 at 3 locations in Lake Mead National Recreation Area. Data are presented in 3 spreadsheets containing sample analyses for (1) stable isotopes in biota (2007-2014), (2) synthetic organic compounds in biota (2013-2014), and (3) synthetic organic compounds in water (2013-2014)

These data were collected as part of a cooperative study with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), National Park Service (NPS), and the University of Nevada, Reno (UNR) to quantify the concentrations of endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) in different species and to understand how they relate to bioaccumulations through the food web. This project was funded by the USGS-NPS Water Quality Partnership Collaborative Grant, and the USGS Nevada and California Water Science Centers.
