Environmental and periphyton composition data from Biscayne Bay Coastal Wetlands, Florida, USA, July 2022 - November 2022

Environmental and periphyton data were collected from transects in the Biscayne Bay Coastal Wetlands (BBCW) during the wet and dry seasons of 2022 to investigate the rate of carbonate sediment production by periphyton. Environmental data include surface water metrics (pH, salinity, conductivity, and water depth) and soil depths. Periphyton data include nutrient, production, and diatom species composition in samples collected from artificial substrates (periphytometers) placed in the field. Data collection for this project is complete, although the South Florida Management District continues to monitor these transects for a larger ongoing BBCW project.本数据集采集自2022年干湿季期间比斯坎湾滨海湿地（Biscayne Bay Coastal Wetlands, BBCW）的样带，旨在探究周丛生物（periphyton）介导的碳酸盐沉积物生成速率。环境数据涵盖地表水指标（pH值、盐度、电导率与水深）及土壤深度；周丛生物数据则包含从野外布设的人工基质（周丛生物培养器，periphytometers）中采集的样本的营养盐水平、生成量以及硅藻物种类组成。本项目的数据采集工作已全部完成，尽管南佛罗里达管理局（South Florida Management District）仍将为一项规模更大的在研BBCW项目，持续对这些样带开展监测。
