Abstract

The dataset is comprised of grain size, bulk density, carbon and nitrogen content, stable carbon isotopes, and radiocarbon content of soils sampled on the floodplain of the Koyukuk River near Huslia, AK. This dataset was collected to characterize sediment properties and floodplain organic carbon stocks in the discontinuous permafrost floodplain of the Koyukuk River. The data help quantify the flux and storage of sediment and carbon between the Koyukuk River and the surrounding floodplain as the river migrates laterally. The samples were collected in June 27 - July 9, 2018. The soil samples come from a total of 24 locations and were sampled in the upper 490 cm of the river cutbanks, point bars, and floodplain. Samples were analyzed for bulk density, full particle size distribution, nitrogen content and carbon content and isotopes, though not all samples were included in each analysis. An additional 10 samples of floodplain woody debris were measured for radiocarbon content. Data, detailed methods, analyses, and interpretations were previously published at: Douglas, M. M., Lingappa, U. F., Lamb, M. P., Rowland, J. C., West, A. J., Li, G., et al. (2021). Impact of river channel lateral migration on microbial communities across a discontinuous permafrost floodplain.

Dataset Goldman, Amy E ; Arnon, Shai ; Bar-Zeev, Edo ; ...

The WHONDRS Summer 2019 Sampling (S19S) Campaign collected samples in 97 globally distributed river corridor systems between July and September 2019. Surficial streambed sediments were collected at three locations within each site (upstream, midstream, and downstream). Surface water was collected at the downstream site. This dataset includes a portion of the data types produced from the sediment samples and does not include any results from the surface water. Surface water data can be found at https://data.ess-dive.lbl.gov/view/doi:10.15485/1603775. Future datasets from this study will include geochemical, hydrologic, and microbial data from the surface water and sediment. The S19S campaign was designed withmore »« less

The data package includes temperature measurements from riverbanks along the Selawik and Koyukuk Rivers in northwest Alaska. The Selawik River data also includes meteorological data collected locally and the Koyukuk River includes bulk density and ice content data from the riverbanks. The Selawik River data was collected between 2010 and 2013 with meteorological data collected for the entire time period and riverbank temperatures collected in shorter time intervals between 2010 to 2012. All of the Selawik River data were collected a single river bend. The Koyukuk River temperature data was collected from late June to early July 2018 at amore »« less
Geomorphic mapping and permafrost occurrence on the Koyukuk River floodplain near Huslia, Alaska

Dataset Douglas, Madison ; Blankenship, Rain ; Chadwick, Austin ; ...

Permafrost occurrence measured in-situ and geomorphic maps drawn by hand using high-resolution satellite imagery for the Koyukuk River floodplain near Huslia, Alaska. The dataset was collected to characterize permafrost extent and rates of formation and degradation due to river processes and climate change. Permafrost occurrence and thickness of the active layer was measured using a 1 or 2 m long permafrost probe or through direct observation (coring, digging trench, exposed ice). Measurements were from June 27 - July 8, 2018 and September 26 - October 1, 2022 and are saved as a csv file. Geomorphic maps delineate floodplain landforms, themore »« less
