The centerpiece of the station's research program is an over 65 year database on the food web of Oneida Lake, New York, that has been collected with support from the Cornell University Brown Endowment and from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The data collected by personnel from the Cornell Biological Field Station include limnology, benthos, zooplankton, phytoplankton, ice cover, mussels, and fish survey data from Oneida Lake from 1957 to the present. This data package contains biomass, density, and average size data for zooplankton collected at six sites on Oneida Lake, NY from 1964 to present. The data package also contains a location table with latitude and longitude of each sampling site as well as a table containing common name, scientific name, taxonomic data, and taxonomic serial number (ITIS) for each of the taxon used in the primary tables.
