Overall, this dataset describes metrics of individual and demographic stress (baseline and 1 hour post-capture corticosterone, body condition, and bacterial killing ability) in the invasive snake Boiga irregularis on Guam collected in intervals of 10-15 years from 1992 to 2018. It also contains corticosterone values obtained from different methods of measuring hormones ( radioimmunoassay; RIA versus enzyme immunoassay; EIA) for 2018 data.\nThe first dataset is from the file \"boiga_18cort_method.csv\", which contains baseline and 1 hour-after-capture blood plasma corticosterone values measured with two methods (enzyme immunoassay and radioimmunoassay) from Boiga irregularis captured on Guam in 2018. This dataset is used in Model 1 of the publication.\nThe second dataset \"boiga_bodycond_submit.csv\" contains morphometric data for Boiga irregularis captured on Guam in 1991-1993, 2003, and 2018. The dataset  is used to calculate the body condition index used throughout the publication.\nThe third dataset is from the file \"boiga_all_baseline_submit.csv\", which contains baseline blood plasma corticosterone values, basic morphometrics, body condition, and capture information for Boiga irregularis on Guam from 1992-2018. Corticosterone from 2018 is reported for two methods: radioimmunoassay and enzyme immunoassay. This dataset is used for models 2 and 3 of the publication.\nThe fourth dataset is from the file \"boiga_base_1h_submit.csv\", which contains baseline and 1-hour-after-capture blood plasma corticosterone data for Boiga irregularis captured on Guam in 2003 and 2018. The dataset also includes capture data, morphometrics, and body condition for the animals. This dataset is used for model 4 of the publication.\nThe fifth and final dataset is \"boiga_bacterialkilling_submit.csv\", which reports the baseline and 1-hour-after-capture blood plasma corticosterone and bacterial killing ability (measured as the plasma dilution at which 50% of bacteria was killed). This dataset was used in model 5 of the publication.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9MGABAX", "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.5fee1f65d34ea5387defd9b0.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_5fee1f65d34ea5387defd9b0", "keyword": ["USGS:5fee1f65d34ea5387defd9b0", "biota", "ecology", "invasive species", "physiology"], "modified": "2021-01-19T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "144.6300, 13.2300, 144.9500, 13.6500", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Metrics of individual and demographic stress in the invasive Brown treesnake on Guam from 1992-2018"}
