Summary

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides discretely measured cyanotoxin, chlorophyll-a, and cyanobacterial toxin genetic data for samples collected from twelve large river sites throughout the United States, from June through October 2019. Discrete water-quality samples were analyzed for cyanotoxins (anatoxin, cylindrospermopsin, microcystin, and saxitoxin), chlorophyll-a, and cyanobacterial toxin genetics as part of a National Water-Quality Assessment Project pilot study to describe cyanobacteria and cyanotoxin occurrence in the Nation's large rivers. The data release contains the genetic data (in .csv and .xlsx formats), qPCR standard curve information (in .csv and .xlsx formats), and a readme file explaining the [...]

Purpose

These data were collected by the National Water-Quality Assessment Project as part of a pilot study to describe cyanobacteria and cyanotoxin occurrence in the Nation's large rivers. This data release was produced in compliance with the federal open-data requirements as a way to make scientific products associated with USGS research efforts and publications available to the public.
