1973 to 1975 data from examinations of diseased fish biological condition, collected by NOAA NCEI. Records include species counts, disease prevalence, and individual fish damage assessments. Environmental parameters like water temperature and salinity were also recorded at sample locations.
Use Cases
- Analyze correlation between water_temperature and fin_rot disease prevalence across species.
- Model species-specific disease susceptibility using total_individuals and number_diseased_fish counts.
- Assess extent_of_damage to body and fins in relation to recorded environmental parameters like salinity.
- Study spatial and temporal patterns of fin rot using survey, station, and collection date identifiers.
Strengths
- Data spans a 3-year period from 1973 to 1975.
- Includes multiple data facets: species counts, disease assessments, and environmental parameters.
Limitations
- Sample size and row count are unknown, potentially limiting statistical power.
- Data is temporally stale, with the last update recorded in 1973.
Provenance
- Source
- NOAA_NCEI (National Centers for Environmental Information).
- Collection Method
- Examinations of biological condition from tow samples of diseased fish.
- Time Range
- 1973 to 1975.
