2008-2011_Kling_Thermokarst_Chemistry - This file contains data collected from thermokarst
impacted soils, lakes, and streams near Toolik Lake Alaska. Data are also presented for experimental manipulations of
water (e.g., time course experiments). Sample descriptors include a unique sortchem #, site, date, time, depth,
distance, elevation, treatment, date-time, category, and water type (e.g., lake, surface, soil). Physical/chemical
measures collected in the field include temperature, conductivity, and pH. Chemical analyses performed later include
alkalinity; dissolved inorganic and organic carbon (DIC and DOC); inorganic and total dissolved nutrients (NH4, PO4,
NO3, TDN, TDP); particulate carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus (PC, PN, and PP); cations (Ca, Mg, Na, K, and Si); anions
(SO4 and Cl); chlorophyll a, and oxygen. Note that archived data from before the NSF ARCSS-Thermokarst project started
in 2009, and funded by NSF from 1988-2008 (e.g., by the NSF ARC LTER), are included in this dataset.
