Suski 20190903 tabular digital data Reston, VA U.S. Geological Survey https://doi.org/10.5066/P95LNXU7 We initiated a project in 2011 to identify lake-wide movement patterns and spawning areas of invasive lake trout in Yellowstone Lake, WY. We implanted acoustic transmitters in lake trout and established a network of stationary telemetry receivers in Yellowstone Lake. Lake Trout tagged with acoustic transmitters (Vemco V - series) were tracked with stationary acoustic receivers (Vemco VR2W - 69 kHz) from 2011 to 2015. The number of active receivers ranged from 17 - 65 as short term goals of the project changed. Coordinates for each detection represent the location of the receiver reading the transmitter. Additionally, detection ranges can vary from apporximately 500 - 1200 meters (but see Vemco.com for more details). In total, the dataset consists of more than 24 million detections from 470 Lake Trout and 21 Yellowstone Cutthroat Trout that were tagged over the course of the study. Any use of trade, firm, or product names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. These data were used to track Lake Trout movement in Yellowstone Lake, WY, with the intention of identifying fall spawning locations. 20110826 20150831 observed Complete None planned -110.58013916015626 -110.20385742187501 44.56699093657141 44.27273816279087 Yellowstone Lake, Yellowstone National Park, WY ISO 19115 Topic Category biota USGS Thesaurus ecology fish life sciences USGS Metadata Identifier USGS:5d66e98ae4b0c4f70cf0c9cd Geographic Names Information System Yellowstone National Park Common geographic areas Wyoming None.

A formal accuracy assessment of the vertical positional information in the data set has either not been conducted, or is not applicable. Transmitters were surgically implanted into the body cavity of the lake trout by experienced biologists. We only tagged lake trout longer than 405 mm (18 in.). All transmitters (Vemco V-series tags) are coded to emit a unique identification signal; some also have depth and temperature sensors. Stationary receivers (Vemco VR2W - 69 kHz) with an average detection radius of about 500 - 1200 m were attached to an anchored rope, with a float located at the surface visible to boaters. Field work generally began soon after ice-off (late May-early June) with the retrieval of receivers deployed overwinter. Data were offloaded during this preiod and receiver batteries were changed. After winter data retrieval, receivers were redeployed in a general positioning array that remained in the lake until the beginning of the spawning season in late August. After each data retrieval, detection data was processed through Vemoco's 'Flase Detection Analyzer' and suspect detections were removed. The resulting data was added to previous data collections to create one dataset.
