This data release includes physical and chemical characteristics of field collected sediment and soil samples in Missouri representing potential sediment/soil that may enter the water column during construction related activities. Three samples were collected, including Spring River sediment, Osage River bank soil and Columbia crushed limestone. The impacts of increased suspended solid level due to the three samples on early-stage freshwater mussels were examined using three freshwater mussel species, including Fatmucket (Lampsilis siliquoidea), Arkansas Brokenray (Lampsilis reeveiana), and Washboard (Megalonaias nervosa). Specifically, toxicity endpoints including survival, biomass, and growth of juveniles were...

The fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) is a key model of vertebrate toxicity. Standardized tests of toxicity in fathead minnow have been developed to support regulatory science, and much is known about the response of the species to various environmental pollutants. However, there is little data on genetic variation within the species, despite the potential influence of genetic background on toxicological outcomes. Furthermore, the phylogenetic relationships among Pimephales species are not fully established and rates of evolutionary divergence within the species and genus have not been investigated. This study examined patterns of genetic variation across the genome within a single wild population of fathead...
We attempted to discern the contributions of physical habitat,water chemistry, nutrients, and contaminants from historic lead-zinc miningactivities on the riffle-dwelling benthic fish community of the SpringRiver, a midwestern warmwater stream that originates in Missouri and flowsinto Kansas and Oklahoma. The Spring River has a fish community thatincludes the Neosho madtom, Noturus placidus, a species Federally listed asthreatened. Although anthropogenic factors, such as contaminants, limitedpopulations and densities of fishes, an integrated approach that assessednatural and anthropogenic factors was necessary to effectively estimate theinfluence of the latter. Fish populations in the Spring River, especiallyNeosho...
The Tri-State Mining District (TSMD) is an area encompassing portions of Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma in which lead and zinc mining historically occurred. To further investigate the relationship between metal contamination and unionid communities, goals of this study were as follows; 1) Conduct a reconnaissance survey of the North Fork Spring River, Spring River, Center Creek, Shoal Creek, Tar Creek, Lost Creek, and Neosho River for areas containing live unionids and/or suitable unionid habitat with the goal of identifying approximately 25 sites that warrant further quantitative assessment, 2) Conduct quantitative unionid and habitat surveys at selected sites, and 3) Compare quantitative mussel data and preliminary...

In February 2017, the Grand River Dam Authority filed to relicense the Pensacola Hydroelectric Project with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. The predominant feature of the Pensacola Hydroelectric Project is Pensacola Dam, which impounds Grand Lake O’ the Cherokees (locally called Grand Lake) in northeastern Oklahoma. Identification of information gaps and assessment of project effects on stakeholders are central aspects of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission relicensing process. Some upstream stakeholders have expressed concerns about the dynamics of sedimentation and flood flows in the transition zone between major rivers and Grand Lake O’ the Cherokees. To relicense the Pensacola Hydroelectric Project...
