DATA & FILE OVERVIEW
---------------------
1. File List
A. Filename: PIT_tagged_FISH.csv
Short description: Fish species, pond, total length (mm), unique PIT tag, date of mortality (? = fish carcass went missing (likely after death, blank = death date undetermined).
B. Filename: Raw_detections.csv
Short description: all fish detected during study - Month, Day, Hour, Min, PIT #(ast 6 digits only),Read (Oregon RFID measure - unused), Detection(Oregon RFID measure - unused) and Date (Day of experiment starting at 1). Erroneous dates, PIT numbers, and other characters are errors created by datalogger and were not included in analyses.
C. Filename: R_code.pdf
Short description: R code
D. Filename: Summarized_mortalities.csv
Short description:Contains summaries of the fish mortalities by pond and species before and after experimental treatment. The number of fish of each species that perished prior to TBT was estimated as: 40 (number initially stocked) minus fish that were recovered alive when the ponds were drained minus individuals that were recovered dead during TBT. Ponds with "*" were fed corn containing with ANT-A.
2. Relationship between files: Raw_detections.csv and PIT_tagged_FISH.csv can be combined and sorted to include all PIT detections and remove erroneous data. Detections can then be summarized.
R code can be used with data taken from table in Summarized_mortalities.csv to determine results discussed in MS
3. Additional related data collected that was not included in the current data package: Data from the Laboratory experiment is all contained within the text of the paper
4. Are there multiple versions of the dataset? no

METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION
--------------------------
1. Description of methods used for collection/generation of data:
The pond experiment was conducted from September 21 to October 13,
2017, in six 0.1-ha earthen ponds located at UMESC in La Crosse,
Wisconsin. The ponds had a relatively uniform depth of ~ 1 m, a soil
overburden on the bottom, sparse aquatic vegetation, and water
temperatures between 18.0 and 22.0 °C. Each pond was stocked with 40
Bluegills (92–173 mm Total Length (TL)), 40 Carp (229–510 mm TL), 40
White Suckers (Catostomus commersonii Lacepède, 1803; 176–315 mm TL),
and 40 Yellow Perch (103–175 mm TL). Carp were collected wild from
Albert Lea Lake (Minnesota); Yellow Perch were obtained from UMESC
culture facilities; White Suckers were obtained from R.J. Hilger & Sons, Inc
(Antigo, Wisconsin, USA); and Bluegill were obtained from Osage Catfisheries.
Each fish was implanted with a unique 12 mm-HDX PIT tag (Oregon
RFID, Portland, Oregon, USA). A 1-m diameter circular pass-over PIT tag
antenna was placed flat on the bottom of each shallow end of each pond
and secured to a metal stake to prevent movement. The antennas had a
detection range of ~ 30 cm. Two multi-antenna HDX PIT readers (Oregon
RFID) were used to record detection data; each reader gathered data from
three ponds, 24 hrs/day.
2. Methods for processing the data: Raw detection data was gathered by Oregon RFID dataloggers. Each detections = recognition of unique fish at feeeding center, above detection antenna.
3. Instrument- or software-specific information needed to interpret the data: R v. 3.4.0 or greater
4. Standards and calibration information, if appropriate:
5. Environmental/experimental conditions: Semi-natural, uncovered outdoor pond
6. Describe any quality-assurance procedures performed on the data:
7. People involved with sample collection, processing, analysis and/or submission:
