Data were compiled from State and Federal agencies. This data table contains raw concentration data, as well as standardized concentrations corrected for differences based on sample type (i.e., tissue type), species-specific bioaccumulation rates (Table S1), and fish size (Table S2). The data were used in linear mixed effects models to estimate average mercury and selenium concentration in fish species and in fish assemblages, including fish total length (cm), sampling location (Sub basin name and GPS coordinates), and sampling year (Figures 2,3, and 4 from manuscript).", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/F71N802D", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.59d63a6ee4b05fe04cc6ae79.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_59d63a6ee4b05fe04cc6ae79", "keyword": ["biota", "Colorado", "Utah", "Upper Colorado-Dirty Devil", "White-Yampa", "fish tissue", "mercury", "Arizona", "Upper Colorado-Dolores", "USGS:59d63a6ee4b05fe04cc6ae79", "bioaccumulation", "Green River", "New Mexico", "White River", "Great Divide-Upper Green River", "environment", "San Juan River", "San Juan", "fishes", "fish", "endangered species", "Gunnison", "Upper Colorado River Basin", "fish samples", "selenium", "Colorado River", "Colorado Headwaters", "Gunnison River", "Yampa River", "Dirty Devil River", "Dolores River", "mercury contamination", "Lower Green", "selenium concentration"], "modified": "2020-08-27T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-111.77401, 36.35373, -105.9703, 40.96755", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Fish tissue mercury and selenium concentrations in Upper Colorado River Basin: 1962-2011"}
