RECOVER MAP 3.1.3.8 Chemotax

This contract involved the analyses of up to 480 periphyton / microalgal samples per funded year. Samples were supplied by various divisions / sections of the South Florida Water Management District (aka SFWMD, the District) and other participants in CERP-RECOVER (e.g. Joel Trexler, Evelynn Gaiser, etc.). Samples were then extracted and pigments separated and identified by the Organic Geochemistry Group (Dr. J. William Louda) at Florida Atlantic University (aka FAU, FAU-OGG). Data was supplied to SFWMD by FAU-OGG as both raw pigment data (e.g. g ‘pigment X’ cm-2 etc.) and chemotaxonomic (Divisional) estimates of community structure derived from such data.本合同涉及每个资助年度至多480份周丛生物/微藻类样本（periphyton / microalgal samples）的分析工作。样本由南佛罗里达水资源管理区（South Florida Water Management District，简称SFWMD，下称"该区"）的多个分部/科室以及CERP-RECOVER项目的其他参与方（如乔尔·特雷克斯勒、伊夫林·盖泽等）提供。随后，样本由佛罗里达大西洋大学（Florida Atlantic University，简称FAU）有机地球化学组（Organic Geochemistry Group，负责人为J. 威廉·劳达博士，下称FAU-OGG）完成提取、色素分离与鉴定。FAU-OGG向SFWMD提交的数据包含两类：原始色素数据（如μg "色素X" cm⁻²等）以及基于此类数据推导得到的群落结构化学分类学（分组）估算结果。
