Hydrostatic Pressure Increases Toxicity in Daphnia magna

The dataset includes data from acute toxicity tests for Daphnia magna, following EPA guidelines (EPA/600/8 - 87/011). D. magna were tested for 48 hours in the lab, using different concentrations of heavy metals, along with the Deep Water Simulator to add hydrostatic pressure to test if there was a difference in mortality when pressure was increased. The heavy metals tested were: copper (CuSO4), cadmium (CdCl2), Zinc (ZnSO4), and Nickel (NiCl2).
