Both samplers are modeled after commercial devices such as the Rotorod\u00ae and the Burkard\u00ae samplers, but are more economical and require less maintenance than commercial devices. We compared our two new samplers to Rotorod\u00ae samplers using Xyleborus spp. boring dust (frass) known to contain fungi responsible for Rapid Ohia Death. The comparison was done in a large outdoor field cage to determine relative effectiveness of the three samplers for capturing windblown boring dust. The dataset contains measurements of boring dust particles that were captured by the three types of samples over the course of twelve trials.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.5c1c1d65e4b0708288c7ac25.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9QN1HBT", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5c1c1d65e4b0708288c7ac25", "keyword": ["environment", "Environmental Sampler", "Spore Traps", "Rapid Ohia Death", "Metrosideros polymorpha", "Environmental DNA", "Xyleborus", "ROD", "USGS:5c1c1d65e4b0708288c7ac25", "Frass"], "modified": "2020-08-27T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-155.096827, 19.695607, -155.091505, 19.700617", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Frass Length Measurements during Caged Sampler Type Comparisons"}
