Description

Data set of trophic cascade in mesocosms experiments for zooplankton (biomass and body size) and phytoplankton (chlorophyll a concentration) caused by Bluegill as well as zooplankton production in those same treatment groups. Zooplankton were collected by tube sampler and phytoplankton were collected through grab samples.
