Published by U.S. Geological Survey | Department of the Interior | Metadata Last Checked: January 27, 2026 | Last Modified: 2022-01-14T00:00:00Z
This data release includes metadata and tabular datasets that document (1) Austropuccina, Ceratocystis and Myrtaceae qPCR (quantitative polymerase chain reaction) DNA detections in Passive Environmental Samplers (PES), (2) wind speed, wind gust speed, and wind direction measurements collected at two sites in the Kahuku Unit of Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park (HAVO) where paired PES were located, (3) localities, sites and elevations where PES were located, and (4) Genbank accession numbers for Austropuccinia and Ceratocystis DNA sequences amplified from samples collected in a subset of PES. These raw data were analyzed and reported in the manuscript "Environmental Monitoring for Invasive Fungal Pathogens of ʽŌhiʽa (Metrosideros polymorpha) on the Island of Hawaiʽi".
