This dataset includes levoglucosan data for five coastal California (United States) streams impacted by the 2020 CZU Lightning Complex Fires which burned from August 16th through September 22nd. Levoglucosan is a highly soluble and biolabile fraction of pyrogenic carbon. The five watersheds (San Lorenzo River, Pescadero Creek, Majors Creek, Laguna Creek, and Scott Creek) were impacted by the fires with watersheds experiencing a range of burn severity and extents. Grab samples were collected from each stream between October 2020 and May 2021, targeting both baseflow and event flow hydrologic conditions. Additional biogeochemistry data (i.e., organic and black carbon concentrations) can be found in a separate data package (https://doi.org/10.4211/hs.421c0226bb38460c8393d67fe0c4f802). This data package consists of one main data folder that contains (1) readme; (2) file-level metadata; (3) data dictionary; (4) field metadata with international generic sample numbers (IGSN); (5) methods codes; and (6) levoglucosan data. All files are .csv or .pdf.
