Data from: Individual weight estimates for Great Lakes benthic invertebrates

We present mean individual weights for common benthic invertebrates of the
Great Lakes collected from over 2,000 benthic samples and eight years of
data collection (2012-2019), both as species-specific weights and average
weights of larger taxonomic groups of interest. The dataset we have
assembled is applicable to food web energy flow models, calculation of
secondary production estimates, interpretation of trophic markers, and for
understanding how biomass distribution varies by benthic invertebrate
species in the Great Lakes. A corresponding data paper describes
comparisons of these data to benthic invertebrates in other lakes.
