Dataset Information

Groundwater level and electrical conductivity datasets acquired within pumping tests on Ilovik Island in Croatia.

ABSTRACT: The small karst island of Ilovik is the most southern of inhabited islands in the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea. During summer tourist season the number of inhabitants increases significantly, and securing the additional freshwater quantities was needed. Given the hydrogeological and geomorphological setting of the island, possibility of brackish groundwater exploitation was considered. Hence, borehole drilling accompanied with pumping tests at three specified locations was carried out. During the pumping tests in two campaigns, groundwater level was measured manually every 2 hours in boreholes, while groundwater electric conductivity and temperature were periodically measured in situ. The sea level was observed at the reference point located near port. Given dataset consists of electrical conductivity, temperature, groundwater and seawater levels. The research article connected with these data (Terzić et al., 2020) provides hydrogeological interpretation of brackish groundwater lens on small karst island.

Project description:AIM:To identify genetic variants underlying six anthropometric traits: body height, body weight, body mass index, brachial circumference, waist circumference, and hip circumference, using a genome-wide association study. METHODS:The study was carried out in the isolated population of the island of Korcula, Croatia, with 898 adult examinees who participated in the larger DNA-based genetic epidemiological study in 2007. Anthropometric measurements followed standard internationally accepted procedures. Examinees were genotyped using HumanHap 370CNV chip by Illumina, with a genome-wide scan containing 316730 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP). RESULTS:A total of 11 SNPs were associated with the investigated traits at the level of P<10(-5), with one SNP (rs7792939 in gene zinc finger protein 498, ZNF498) associated with body weight, hip circumference, and brachial circumference (P=3.59-5.73 x 10(-6)), and another one (rs157350 in gene delta-sarcoglycan, SGCD) with both brachial and hip circumference (P=3.70-6.08 x 10(-6). Variants in CRIM1, a gene regulating delivery of bone morphogenetic proteins to the cell surface, and ITGA1, involved in the regulation of mesenchymal stem cell proliferation and cartilage production, were also associated with brachial circumference (P=7.82 and 9.68 x 10(-6), respectively) and represent interesting functional candidates. Other associations involved those between genes SEZ6L2 and MAX and waist circumference, XTP6 and brachial circumference, and AMPA1/GRIA1 and height. CONCLUSION:Although the study was underpowered for the reported associations to reach formal threshold of genome-wide significance under the assumption of independent multiple testing, the consistency of association between the 2 variants and a set of anthropometric traits makes CRIM1 and ITGA1 highly interesting for further replication and functional follow-up. Increased linkage disequilibrium between the used markers in an isolated population makes the formal significance threshold overly stringent, and changed allele frequencies in isolate population may contribute to identifying variants that would not be easily identified in large outbred populations.
