Description:

Abstract:

This dataset provides information on the identity and number of insects that emerged from thaw pond basins on the central Arctic Coastal Plain, Alaska, during the summer growing season in 2012 and 2013. Collections were made using passive floating emergence traps in pond centers and margins from four types of ponds: low centered polygons, troughs, small coalescent, and large coalescent. A single table provides detail on the family level identity and number of insects captured, the day and year of capture, and the duration of trapping.

Purpose:

Insect collections were made to document the number, composition, and timing of subsidies from tundra wetland habitats to the terrestrial ecosystem.

Taxonomic_Procedures:

The petri dish containing the emergent insects was placed on a marked grid (2 x 2 cm) and the insects in each cell were identified (to family level, where possible) by the authors and counted under a dissecting microscope. When a complete census of trapped adults was not feasible due to high abundance (> 500 individuals), a subset of cells (n = 13) was counted.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

Exposure to sunlight may have caused temperature sensors to read artificially elevated water temperatures (Johnson and Wilby, 2013), but consistency of the deployment method enabled us to make comparisons across pond classes.

All samples were stored in the cold and dark after being filtered on site and before shipping to the laboratory. In many cases the samples remained in the field for several weeks before there was a way to get them off the site (via float plane) and to the lab.

Biologists used taxonomic keys in Merrit, Cummins, and Berg (2008) and Borror, Triplehorn, and Johnson (1989) to identify insects to the taxonomic family. Any insects that could not be identified to family, either due to small size, indistinguishable features, or damage were excluded from the analysis. This is stated in the analytical methods of the paper.

Logical_Consistency_Report:

Sample counts were adjusted for the trap sampling area and the number of days the trap was deployed, giving number per square meter per day.

All data were QA QC upon entry and before use in the analysis. All entries were accounted for, and data sheets were referenced and included in the final data set. The insect data are counts; there is no upper limit - there are no negative values or fractions in the count data.

Completeness_Report:

Any organisms that could not be identified to family (3% of individuals) and any captured larva (non-emergent) were removed from the analysis.

The data set includes only insects identified to the taxonomic level of family. Any identifications made at higher levels (e.g. Order or Class) or aquatic larvae that were not yet emerging but became trapped with the emergent insects were excluded from the data set and the analysis.

The data represent insects collected from Arctic thaw ponds from within the study area, on the Central Arctic Coastal Plain, AK.

Methodology:

Methodology_Type: Field
Methodology_Description:

In each study pond (n = 12), deployed one floating emergence trap in the approximate center of the pond and tethered the trap in place using rebar anchors (Cushman, 1983).At a sub-sample of ponds (n = 8), a second emergence trap was placed in the pond margin, in the transition zone between wetted and dry habitats. Each trap was fitted with a removable petri dish (14 cm diameter) coated with Tree Tanglefoot (Tanglefoot Company, Grand Rapids, Michigan), a sticky substance that captured emerging adults. Samples were collected every 14 days in 2012 and every 10 days in 2013; replacing each petri dish and storing samples as soon as possible in a cool dark location for later processing. Traps were deployed on 29 June 2012 and 10 June 2013. Final collections were made on 11 August in 2012 and 1 August in 2013

The collected petri dishes from emergence traps were placed on a marked grid (2 x 2 cm) and the insects in each cell were identified (to family level, where possible) and counted under a dissecting microscope. Body length (excluding antennae) was measured to the nearest millimeter. When a complete census of trapped adults was not feasible due to high abundance (> 500 individuals), a subset of cells (n = 13) was counted.

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Emergence trap captures were evaluated at the taxonomic family level for all organisms. Any organisms that could not be identified to family (3% of individuals) and any captured larva (non-emergent) were removed from the analysis. We determined the number and identities of families observed in each pond class. In each sample, counts of insect families were standardized for area and the number of days the trap was deployed.

Summary statistics were examined across the pond classes and mean density was determined by taxonomic family and origin (i.e., aquatic, semiaquatic, and terrestrial). Origin was determined from literature (Borror et al. 1989; Merrit et al. 2008).
