Dataset title: Macrophyte count data collected from Northeast Shark Slough, Everglades National Park (FCE) from September 2006 to Present Dataset ID: LT_PP_Gaiser_001 Research type: Short-term Dataset Creator Name: Dr. Evelyn Gaiser Position: Primary Investigator Organization: Florida Coastal Everglades LTER Program Address: 11200 S.W. 8th Street Miami, Florida 33199 USA Phone: 305-348-6145 Fax: 305-348-4096 Email: gaisere@fiu.edu URL: http://serc.fiu.edu/periphyton/ Metadata Provider Organization: Florida Coastal Everglades LTER Program Address: Florida International University University Park OE 148 Miami, FL 33199 USA Phone: 305-348-6054 Email: fcelter@fiu.edu URL: http://fcelter.fiu.edu Dataset Abstract Three 1m2 throws are made within a few meters of each site center. Within each throw, all emergent macrophytes are counted (live and dead) and recorded. Submerged periphyton-associated aquatic vegetation are identified and recorded as a percentage of the total periphyton component. Macrophyte cover is recorded in percent cover, and average plant height is determined from three representative plants. Water depth is also recorded as an average of three depths.

Method Step Description Macrophytes were identified within each throw, and density and coverage was recorded. Submerged aquatic vegetation were identified and density recorded as a percentage of the total periphyton component. Instrumentation Macrophyte heights were determined using a meter stick submerged aquatic vegetation composition in periphyton is determined using a graduated cylinder Quality Control Field data are written in pencil on waterproof paper and photocopied upon return to the laboratory. They are then entered into the appropriate digital format. These data are reviewed in hard copy and digital format by the lab manager. Laboratory data are written in pencil on waterproof paper, photocopied prior to computer entry and then entered digitally in duplicate and cross-referenced to hard copy notes. Data outliers, determined by comparison to long-term variance in that parameter, are highlighted in resulting spreadsheets for examination by the principal investigator, who may discard the values.
