- Description:
- Michigan lakes are an important resource, however, their ecosystems are declining and projected to continue to face further impacts under future land use and climate change. Understanding how lake ecosystems respond to environmental stressors and management actions is critical for identifying resilient lakes and developing adaptation strategies. However, the ability to manage lakes is hampered by a lack of historical information. Historical lake data in Michigan were originally archived as index cards at the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. All of the images of these cards are stored in this collection, Collections, Heterogeneous data, and Next Generation Ecological Studies (CHANGES) - Michigan Lake Surveys, and the images for this specific dataset are stored in the CHANGES Project- Fish Growth Analysis (GROW) dataset. The CHANGES project used a crowd sourcing platform called Zooniverse to transcribe at least basic information (i.e. dates, collected by) from all of these cards. Some of the card types, such as the one in this dataset, were prioritized to transcribe to produce a usable (i.e. machine-readable, uniform, and standardized) historical dataset. and Fish growth cards document fish that were aged and measured during fish surveys. The data that were transcribed from these cards and included in this dataset (grow_data.csv) are for each fish species: the number of fish measured in each age group, and the minimum, maximum, and average length of the fish for each age group. The final growth dataset includes length-at-age information for 36 different species (grow_species_table). For a description of all fields of this data table see grow_datadictionary.

- Description:
- Archives at the Institute for Fisheries Research (IFR) hold records of thousands of lake surveys from the University of Michigan and Michigan Department of Natural Resources. The records contained in this dataset are jpeg images of the index card records from the IFR surveys. Images include the front of the card and when available, the back of a card. and Management Proposals Cards contain information for a lake and proposals for management strategies. Information includes present designation and change in designation, present game species, stocking suggestions, predator control, food increase suggestions, vegetation, shelters, spawning facilities, water level regulation, and other recommendations.

The records contained in this dataset are jpeg images of the index card records from the IFR surveys. Images include the front of the card and when available, the back of a card. and Examination cards are similar to lake summary cards, but have less information. They include connectivity, water color, vegetation, food sources, bottom substrate, shore condition, temperature, area, and fish species observations.
