Dataset is a compilation of all sampling sites of articles where
ecological indices were used to assess the impact of different
environmental stressors in aquatic environments from Argentina. Points
of this dataset were extracted from 78 papers published between 1996
and 2018. We selected articles that use ecological indices to analyze
some local environmental problematics or stressors. Using the type of
index from each article we performed the kml file, which contained the
categorized sampling sites by different symbols according to the
ecological index: physico-chemical, biological, geomorphological and
multimetric. We carried out a map (shapefile) with all the sampling
sites referenced to the ecoregions of Argentina proposed by Burkart
(1999).
