Field data for seasonal synoptic sampling of 93 urban streams in Atlanta, Georgia (USA), 2021-2022

This dataset contains field measurements taken during water sampling from 93 first- to fifth-order streams in the Altamaha, Chattahoochee, and Flint Watersheds draining a gradient of urban land use in the greater Atlanta, Georgia metropolitan area. Field collection took place during four synoptic sampling events(September 2021, December 2021, March 2022, and July 2022) to capture spatial and seasonal variation in stream conditions (specific conductivity, water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, ORP). Filtered stream samples were analyzed for dissolved organic carbon concentration and characteristics, available in separate datasets. These data were collected as part of the Carbon in Urban Rivers Biogeochemistry (CURB) Project. Detailed field data and site data are published separately and can be linked using the “curbid” and “synoptic_event” columns in each dataset.
