We studied the community structure of crustacean zooplankton along the biogeographical zones of the St. Lawrence River (Québec, Canada), to evaluate how the riverscale hydrological network formed by water masses, and local-scale aquatic environment, influenced the distribution of zooplankton during the spring (high discharge) and summer (low discharge) hydroperiods. R code for all data analysis will be available in R format via GitHub. A direct URL will be provided once this has been uploaded. All data are a part subject of a publication containing method details, full QA/QC, interpretation and conclusions. Citation: Taranu, Z.E., Legendre, P., Cusson, E. et al. Riverscale distribution of zooplankton in the St. Lawrence River in relation to hydrological networks, hydroperiods and local environmental gradients. Hydrobiologia (2023). doi.org/10.1007/s10750-023-05259-7 Supplemental Information The St. Lawrence Action Plan (SLAP) 2011 to 2026 (see http://planstlaurent.qc.ca/en/home.html) is the latest Canada-Quebec Agreement on the St. Lawrence and builds on the four previous agreements implemented since 1988. The agreement aims to conserve and enhance the St. Lawrence. It is based…
