As part of this work, selenium concentrations in biological tissue samples were compiled from published reports, public databases, and unpublished archives into a tabulated spreadsheet. Since the California Department of Water Resources summarized selenium biological data in 2005, our compilation efforts focused on the 2005 through 2020 range. The resulting dataset encompasses all records available to us from 1984 to 2020, although we did not find any selenium records after 2017.", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "accessURL": "https://doi.org/10.5066/P9ECP7O0", "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.621d3fc3d34ee0c6b3891281.xml", "format": "XML", "mediaType": "text/xml", "title": "Original Metadata"}], "identifier": "http://datainventory.doi.gov/id/dataset/USGS_621d3fc3d34ee0c6b3891281", "keyword": ["California", "Salton Sea", "USGS:621d3fc3d34ee0c6b3891281", "bioaccumulation", "chemical analysis", "environment", "food web", "geoscientificinformation", "wetland ecosystems"], "modified": "2022-04-20T00:00:00Z", "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "U.S. Geological Survey"}, "spatial": "-116.1914, 32.7365, -115.4608, 33.6329", "theme": ["geospatial"], "title": "Biological tissue data used to evaluate selenium hazards in the Salton Sea ecosystem (1984-2020)"}
