BrookTrout: Brook Trout eDNA and Environmental Data

Description

This dataset contains information on brook trout detections using environmental DNA (eDNA) and environmental parameters collected from various sites in Ontario, Canada. The data was sourced from a scientific study comparing eDNA sampling methods with electrofishing to detect Brook trout populations.
