Freshwater Biological Traits Database (Data Sources)
Citation:
U.S. EPA. Freshwater Biological Traits Database (Data Sources). U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC, 2012.
Impact/Purpose:
Supporting document for Implications of Climate Change for Bioassessment Programs and Approaches to Account for Effects.
Description:
When EPA release the final report, Freshwater Biological Traits Database, it referenced numerous data sources that are included below. The Traits Database report covers the development of a database of freshwater biological traits with additional traits that are relevant to detecting climate change-related effects, especially traits related to temperature tolerances and flow.
