Description

Small survey of Lepidurus arcticus (tadpole shrimp)occurrences and relative abundance (CPUE from standardized sweep-net survey) in ponds and lakes of the Zackenberg area, North-east Greenland July and August 2013. Includes both presence and absence information.

Sampling Description

Study Extent

Lakes and ponds in the proximity of Zackenberg and Daneborg research stations North-east Greenland July-August 2013

Sampling

During the summer 2013 (July-August) a field campaign was conducted where 21 ponds / small lakes in the Zackenberg and Daneborg area North-east Greenland. Semi-quantitative samples of Lepidurus arcticus (using Z-sweeps) where taken several times each pond. The lakes and ponds ranged in size from 2500 to 147000 m2 and depth from 50 to > 300 cm.

Method steps

  1. Data entered on paper in field and transferred to MS xl spreadsheets. Converted to Darwin Core Archive format using the dplyr and tidyr libraries in R (https://github.com/andersfi/DwC).

Taxonomic Coverages

Lepidurus arcticus identified to species
  1. Lepidurus arcticus
    common name: tadpole shrimp rank: species

Geographic Coverages

Two main study areas: Zackenberg valley (close to the Zackenberg research station) and Lille Sødal (close to the Daneborg research station).
