Description:
Abstract:
This dataset includes tables related to macroinvertebrate collections in streams and springs of the 1002 region of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in northeastern Alaska. Macroinvertebrates were collected using kicknets and driftnets in April and August with the goal of comparing populations to those sampled from the same water bodies by the USGS in the 1970s.
Purpose:
These data were collected to compare macrovinvertebrate populations in time.

Lineage:
Methodology:
Methodology_Type: Field
Methodology_Description:
Macroinvertebrates were collected in streams, springs, and rivers following standard methods [Cuffney et al., 1993; Merritt and Cummins, 1996]. Invertebrates were collected via an hour-long deployment of a Surber net as a drift sampler. The net was placed in area of moderate flow with the bottom of the net frame against the streambed and the top of the net frame above the water surface to collect surface film. After collection of the drift sample, the invertebrates were sampled at eight locations within the channel by agitating the bottom materials within the frame attached to the Surber net for one minute at each location. There were no field splits.
Methodology:
Methodology_Type: Lab
Methodology_Description:
Samples were shipped to the National Aquatic Monitoring Center, where they were identified to species (Merrit et al 2008), following methods published at https://namc-usu.org/SampleProcessing/QualityStandards
