Burbot mercury data from interior alaska

Burbot were collected from December 2018 to November 2019 near public access and established fishing areas (Figure 1). Burbot were captured primarily using baited setlines deployed in water depths of 0.3-5.0 m during the open water season (April to October), and through the ice during winter months...

Description
Summary:Burbot were collected from December 2018 to November 2019 near public access and established fishing areas (Figure 1). Burbot were captured primarily using baited setlines deployed in water depths of 0.3-5.0 m during the open water season (April to October), and through the ice during winter months (November to March). Total mercury concentrations were measured for liver and muscle tissue. Bulk stable isotope values were measured for burbot muscle tissue.
