lamprey_time: Lethal time data for seasonal exposure to TFM for larval sea...
In ecotox: Analysis of Ecotoxicology

This dataset contains the amount of responding/dead lamprey from 1 to 12 h of exposure to the piscicide, 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol (TFM), for the calculated LC50s at each month for the 2011 seasonal larval sea lamprey TFM toxicity data.

1	lamprey_time

A tibble containing 44 rows and 7 columns.

nominal.dose: nominal TFM dose(mg/L)
dose: averaged measured TFM dose (mg/L) over 12 h of exposures
month: month in which toxicity test occurred
hour: duration of exposure in hours
response: number of lamprey that responded over 12 h exposure to TFM
survive: number of lamprey that survived over 12 h exposure to TFM
total: total number of lamprey that were exposed to TFM over 12 h

For each month, new lamprey were collected from the deer creek, MI, and were randomly assigned to a tank for exposure to the piscicide, 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol (TFM). The LC50 at each month was then calculated and the amount of responding/dead lamprey from 1 to 12 h was recorded.
