Mosquito Ovitrap Data from Baltimore City and County (2011-2016)

Mosquitoes are an important component of insect biodiversity across
all ecosystems. As invertebrates, they are sensitive to abiotic
conditions during both aquatic juvenile and terrestrial adult stages.
The data here were collected to identify how mosquito species
composition, phenology, and peak population abundances are influenced
by changes in abiotic and biotic conditions along an urbanization
gradient from residential Baltimore City to forested Baltimore County.
Many of the sample sites were aligned with the LTER's stream sampling
along the Gwynns Falls, with additional sites located in community
gardens in residential neighborhoods near Watershed 263.
