Seward Peninsula, Alaska soil pore-water chemistry and isotope data were collected from July 2016 through August 2019 at three sites. The dataset includes results from ions and isotopes sampled using rhizons, wicks, and a sipper. It was produced by the NGEE Arctic project, a Department of Energy-funded research effort from 2012-2022.
Use Cases
- Modeling soil biogeochemistry based on pore-water ion concentrations
- Analyzing water and nitrogen isotope ratios for tracing nutrient cycling
- Studying permafrost ecosystem dynamics based on multi-year sampling
- Calibrating land model components for Arctic regions based on field observations
Strengths
- Multi-year time series spanning July 2016 to August 2019
- Data collected from three distinct field sites on the Seward Peninsula
- Part of a 10-year, Department of Energy-funded research project (NGEE Arctic)
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
- Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified
