Fish ecology data from 16 lakes on Finnmarksvidda, Norway 2005-2009

The database contains biological and ecological data from freshwater fish collected from 16 lake localities situated on the Finnmarksvidda highland plateau from 2005 to 2009. Fish sampling was carried out after standard protocols using multimesh gillnets in littoral, pelagic and profundal habitats. Parameters include species, morphotype of whitefish, habitat, length, weight, age, sex, maturation, parasite infection, diet, stable isotopes (including from invertebrates). The prime focus is on European whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus), the dominant fish species of most lakes, but samples have also been retreived from other species.

本数据库收录了2005年至2009年间，采集自芬马克高原（Finnmarksvidda）16个湖泊采样点位的淡水鱼类生物与生态数据。鱼类采样工作严格遵循标准操作规程，使用多网目刺网（multimesh gillnets）在沿岸带、水层带与深底带生境中开展。采集参数涵盖物种、白鲑形态型、生境、体长、体重、年龄、性别、成熟状态、寄生虫感染情况、食性以及稳定同位素（含无脊椎动物稳定同位素数据）。本数据集的核心研究对象为欧洲白鲑（Coregonus lavaretus）——多数湖泊中的优势鱼类物种，但同时也收录了其他鱼类的采样样本。
