Abstract

This data package is part of the Watershed Function SFA data collection and contains geochemical characterization of sediments as a function of depth in the pumphouse vicinity, including Meander C and Meander O (oxbow). This data was used in the manuscript "Fox, P.M., Bill, M., Heckman, K., Conrad, M., Anderson, C., Keiluweit, M., and Nico, P.S.Shale as a Source of Organic Carbon in Floodplain Sediments of a Mountainous Watershed" published in Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences. Data includes sieving, total organic carbon (TOC), total inorganic carbon (TIC), total nitrogen (TN), carbon isotopes (14C and 13C) of whole sediment. Sediment density fractionation data is also included, with measurements of TOC, TN, 14C and 13C on density fractions. Metal and carbon concentrations from various sediment extractions (HCl, dithionite, oxalate, water, and pyrophosphate) are included. Characterization of extracted carbon by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and UV-Visible light spectroscopy. Characterization of density fractionated (light fractions) organic carbon by FTIR. Carbon X-ray spectroscopy (C near edge X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy [NEXAFS] and scanning transmission X-ray microscopy [STXM]) is also included for shale samples and sediment samples.Additional acknowledgements:1.

Mineralogy of floodplain sediments from Meanders C, O, and Z in the East River Watershed, CO, USA

Dataset Carrero, Sergio ; Fox, Patricia ; Nico, Peter

This dataset includes bulk X-ray diffraction data from floodplain sediments collected as a part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (SFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin. The data were collected in order to investigate the role of biogeochemical cycling and other river corridor processes on riverine export of solutes. Sediment cores were collected from Meander C, Meander O, and Meander Z in July 2016 to September 2017 to depths of approximately 40-95 cm. Sample metadata including locations, depths, and sample dates are included in a csv file ("sample_list_and_locations.csv").

Some river water grab samples are also included. Data includes in-field measurements (pH, electrical conductivity [EC], oxidation reduction potential [ORP], dissolvedmore »« less
Hyporheic, Floodplain, and Surface Water (on Floodplain and River) Geochemical Datasets, and Shapefiles on Meander C at the East River, Colorado

Dataset Newcomer, Michelle ; Raberg, Jonathan ; Dwivedi, Dipankar ; ...

The purpose of this dataset was to sample surface water and groundwater geochemistry at random locations in the East River, Colorado to provide a broad spatial dataset of geochemistry. The East River is part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, United States. We conducted this random sampling at multiple time points including during the snowmelt flooding stage, during peak flood, during the falling limb of flood, and during baseflow. This datasets contain many datafiles. We include flat text files of surface water geochemistry including surface water on the floodplain and surfacemore »« less
2017 Meander C sediment characterization from the East River, Colorado

Dataset Anderson, Cam ; Ying, Sam ; Griswold, Frances ; ...

This dataset includes characterization data collected on sediment samples from Meander C as part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (SFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin. The data were collected to investigate the nature of mineral-organic associations across the meander transect and with depth. Samples were collected in 2017, and analyzed using sequential extractions (water, pyrophosphate, HCl, and dithionite) and density fractionation. Data collected include: texture, pH, root biomass, and metals (Fe, Al, Ca, Si) of bulk sediment samples; C and N of heavy fraction; and extractable OC, Fe, and Al, and organic matter characterization using high-resolutionmore »« less
