This dataset contains biological, chemical, and physical data collected on ODNR Watercraft during cruises SB-2019-01, SB-2019-02, SB-2019-03, SB-2019-04, SB-2019-05, SB-2019-06, and SB-2019-07 in the Great Lakes from 2019-06-10 to 2019-09-23. These data include Ammonium, Nitrate, Nitrite, Nitrogen, SiOH_4, chlorophyll a, conductivity, depth, dissolved Oxygen, nitrate plus nitrite, pH, and water temperature. The instruments used to collect these data include Van Dorn water sampler and YSI Sonde 6-Series. These data were collected by George S. Bullerjahn and Robert Michael McKay of Bowling Green State University as part of the "Lake Erie Center for Fresh Waters and Human Health (Great Lakes Center)" project. The Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO) submitted these data to NCEI on 2020-06-16.

Supplemental Information
Acquisition Description:
Sampling and sample processing followed Salk et al., (2018).

Briefly, at each sampling location, water column physical and chemical parameters (pH, conductivity, temperature, dissolved oxygen) were measured using a YSI 600QS sonde (YSI Inc., Yellow Springs, OH, USA). Water samples were collected by Van Dorn bottle at 1m depth for the analysis of NO3, NH4, phosphate, TKN, TP, chl a concentrations, total microcystins and cell identification/biovolume enumeration. Samples for dissolved nutrient analysis were filtered immediately upon collection (0.2 um), kept on ice, and frozen upon return to the lab. Unfiltered sample water was collected for TKN and TP analysis and also frozen. Total and dissolved (<0.2 um) nutrient concentrations were determined following analysis of samples at the Ohio State University Stone Laboratory (Gibralter Island, OH, USA). Samples for chl a analysis were concentrated on GFC filters whereas raw water samples for microcystins were frozen in new polycarbonate bottles with subsequent analysis of both parameters by Ohio EPA.
Purpose This dataset is available to the public for a wide variety of uses including scientific research and analysis.
