In total, we collected data for 11 different fish taxa, sampled at 25 sites ranging across 56 river kilometers in a wilderness river for 4 years following dam removal. We show that eDNA can effectively be used to determine whether fish have recolonized past former dams, and in some cases determine the spatial extent of that recolonization.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P96R5Q0M", "description": "Landing page for access to the data", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "application/http", "title": "Digital Data"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "description": "The metadata original format", "downloadURL": "https://data.usgs.gov/datacatalog/metadata/USGS.5e9dea4a82ce172707fb8daa.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5e9dea4a82ce172707fb8daa", "keyword": ["Charr", "Dam Removal", "Elwha River", "Salmon", "USGS:5e9dea4a82ce172707fb8daa", "biota", "environmental DNA"], "modified": "2020-08-30T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-123.63739013671876, 47.730087095193056, -123.44238281250001, 48.151428143221224", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Environmental DNA (eDNA) is an Effective Tool to Track Recolonizing Migratory Fish Following Large-Scale Dam Removal, field data"}
