Ice core, auger hole, conductivity, and shapefile data to determine bottomfast sea ice extent from lagoon sites along the Beaufort Sea Coast, Alaska, 2017-2021
The shapefile represents bottomfast sea ice (BSI) extent in lagoons along the Alaska Beaufort Sea coast during winter and spring, 2017-2021. It was created by digitizing extents from interferograms from the Alaska Satellite Facility Vertex portal. The result is used to identify BSI lateral extent in Arctic lagoons during the growth cycle seasonally. Comparing to future interferograms will identify the trend of BSI within Arctic lagoons. Each feature is attributed with applicable date range and area. Accurate data for the initial growth and maximum extent of BSI could only be collected for the winter and spring months. After the last collection in the spring, there is likely still BSI; however, the surface processes that take place after this point prevent further readings. For early winter time periods, if there are interferograms available (2017 and 2018 data had gaps in interferogram collection as Sentinel-1 was still new), the first date collected can be considered the onset of BSI formation. Ice cores are collected using a Snow, Ice, and Permafrost Research Establishment (SIPRE) corer and measured for salinity. The data is logged in Excel format following Seasonal Ice Zone Observing Network (SIZONet) practices, making it compatible with the PySIC Python toolkit for analysis. The auger data identifies key measurements collected from in-situ observations. Data are collected along five surveys and saved as a single CSV file. The data represent a 1-D representation of each auger hole. The data are used to verify satellite interpretations of BSI extent. The apparent conductivity data includes values at three frequencies (1000 Hz, 4000 Hz, 16000 Hz) recorded during the spring of 2021 in Western Elson Lagoon. Data are saved as an EMI file, which is a CSV format with specific column names and header information. MATLAB scripts to read and interpret data are included in this data package. The apparent conductivity values are used to identify the boundary between floating
Air temperature at core phenology sites and additional bird monitoring sites in the Andrews Experimental Forest, 2009 to present
The H.J Andrews phenology study air temperature network includes 16 core phenology sites, 40 core bird sites and 128 auxiliary bird sites. This study examines air temperatures at multiple sites within the Andrews Experimental Forest. Air temperatures were recorded 1.5 m above ground at 184 sites distributed on an 800-m incomplete grid throughout much of the Andrews Forest. Data were collected using automated sensors starting in June of 2009 at 56 sites and in June 2011 128 additional sensors were added. These data document the complex spatial and temporal patterns of air temperature variation within the Andrews Forest, which is governed by multiple processes including inversions, regional air mixing, cold air drainage and pooling, and the effects of vegetation on temperature extremes. The data entities provided indicate various methods of data quality checking over time.
Ice, water, and sediment pigment concentrations from Beaufort Sea lagoons core program stations, 2023-24
Bottom ice (< 20 cm), water column, and undisturbed surface sediment samples from the Beaufort Lagoon Ecosystem Long Term Ecological Research programs were collected, in tandem, from core program sites in ice-cover (~April), ice break-up (~June), and open water (~August) seasons of 2023, and ice-cover 2024, to quantify algal pigment concentrations and variations in an annual cycle. We also ran historical samples from 2021 sampling seasons. This data can be used with analysis programs such as CHEMTAX or PhytoClass to elucidate microalgal community structure. Fourteen pigments were measured, including chlorophyll a, fucoxanthin, zeaxanthin, alloxanthin, peridinin, prasinoxanthin, lutein, chlorophyll c<sub>3</sub>, 19-hexanoyloxyfucoxanthin, and 19-butanoyloxyfucoxanthin. Phaeopigments (pheophytin, pheophorbide, and chlorophyllide a) were also included in these analyses. For sediment samples, the values of chlorophyll a, fucoxanthin, zeaxanthin, alloxanthin, peridinin, pheophytin, pheophorbide, and chlorophyllide a can be found in the core program pigment dataset, which is a continuously collected data set (<a href="https://doi.org/10.6073/pasta/5294f45c9c7287903078926a487f1fd7" style="text-decoration: underline;">Sediment pigment concentrations</a>). Pigment concentrations were measured using high-precision liquid chromatography (HPLC). Concentrations are represented as μg L<sup>-1</sup> for both ice and water column samples, and as μg g<sup>-1</sup> for sediment samples.
Soil temperature at GCE core monitoring sites in the winter of 2019-2020
We deployed one hobo logger in each vegetation zone at each of the ten primary GCE monitoring sites, for a total of 20 loggers. The loggers were deployed at plot number 1 in each zone, to the “outside” (away from plot number 2), parallel in elevation with the middle of plot 1, buried 10 cm deep, lying horizontal, and tied with a string to the upper left hand (looking from the ocean towards the land) corner stake of the plot. Hobos were deployed during fall monitoring in October 2019, and set to start logging on October 15, 1 am, at 15 minute intervals, with the loggers set on Central Time (times were converted to UTC in post-processing). They were retrieved in April 2020 and files were trimmed to end on a standard date. Exact deployment and retrieval dates are on the attached adobe acrobat file.

Cascade Project at North Temperate Lakes LTER Core Data Carbon 1984 - 2023
Data on dissolved organic and inorganic carbon, particulate organic matter, partial pressure of CO2 and absorbance at 440nm. Samples were collected with a Van Dorn sampler. Organic carbon and absorbance samples were collected from the epilimnion, metalimnion, and hypolimnion. Inorganic samples were collected at depths corresponding to 100%, 50%, 25%, 10%, 5%, and 1% of surface irradiance, as well as one sample from the hypolimnion. Samples for the partial pressure of CO2 were collected from two meters above the lake surface (air) and just below the lake surface (water). Sampling frequency: varies; number of sites: 14
Cascade Project at North Temperate Lakes LTER Core Data Nutrients 1991 - 2019
Physical and chemical variables are measured at one central station near the deepest point of each lake. In most cases these measurements are made in the morning (0800 to 0900). Vertical profiles are taken at varied depth intervals. Chemical measurements are sometimes made in a pooled mixed layer sample (PML); sometimes in the epilimnion, metalimnion, and hypolimnion; and sometimes in vertical profiles. In the latter case, depths for sampling usually correspond to the surface plus depths of 50percent, 25percent, 10percent, 5percent and 1percent of surface irradiance. The 1991-1999 chemistry data was obtained from the Lachat auto-analyzer. Like the process data, there are up to seven samples per sampling date due to Van Dorn collections across a depth interval according to percent irradiance. Voichick and LeBouton (1994) describe the autoanalyzer procedures in detail. Nutrient samples were sent to the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies for analysis beginning in 2000. The Kjeldahl method for measuring nitrogen is not used at IES, and so measurements reported from 2000 onwards are Total Nitrogen.

Cascade Project at North Temperate Lakes LTER Core Data Process Data 1984 - 2016
Data useful for calculating and evaluating primary production processes were collected from 6 lakes from 1984-2016. Chlorophyll a and pheophytin were measured by the same fluorometric method from 1984-2016. In some years chlorophyll and pheophytin were separated into size fractions (total, and a 'small' fraction that passed a 35 um mesh screen). Primary production was measured by the 14C method from 1984-1998. Dissolved inorganic carbon for primary production calculation was calculated from Gran alkalinity titration and air-equilibrated pH until 1987 when this method was replaced by gas chromatography. Until 1995 alkaline phosphatase activity was measured as an indicator of phosphorus deficiency.

Zooplankton data from 1984-2019. Sampled approximately weekly with two net hauls through the water column (30 cm diameter net, 80 um mesh). There have been over eight zooplankton counters during this period, so species-level identifications (TAX, below) are not as consistent as those for some of the other datasets. Sampling Frequency: varies; Number of sites: 8

Soil dissolved organic matter and greenhouse gas fluxes from intact Delmarva Bay wetland soil cores during laboratory simulation of groundwater level rise
Wetlands in low-relief landscapes have dynamic terrestrial-aquatic interfaces as surface water and groundwater levels fluctuate seasonally and these variable water levels influence wetland carbon cycling. Seasonal changes in groundwater levels determine which soils are hydrologically connected to the wetland surface water-groundwater continuum and therefore which soils act as carbon sources. To quantify groundwater-mediated soil dissolved organic matter (DOM) and greenhouse gas (CO2 and CH4) fluxes, we performed a laboratory simulation of groundwater rise on intact soil cores. Soil cores were collected from four Delmarva Bay wetlands located in the low-relief landscape of the Delmarva Peninsula in the Mid-Atlantic United States. At each wetland, two cores (length = 60 cm, diameter = 10.2 cm) were collected: one from within the wetland basin and the second from the transitional zone near the edge of the wetland basin (total number of cores collected = 8). To characterize seasonal hydrologic conditions at each wetland site where intact soil cores were collected (e.g., mean water level, number of saturation events, duration of saturation), we used high frequency water level data collected in wetland center and upland groundwater monitoring wells. In the lab, cores were re-saturated with groundwater over 15 days and after cores were fully re-saturated, core water levels were maintained for an additional 25 days. Water levels in each head tank and soil core were manually recorded on sub-daily timesteps. Rhizon soil porewater samplers were installed at 8, 20, and 40 cm below the soil surface reflecting the expected depths of the O, A, and B soil horizons across the wetland sites. Source groundwater, soil porewater, and exfiltrated surface water samples were collected daily from the soil cores and analyzed for pH, ORP, and DOM concentration (dissolved organic carbon) and DOM composition (absorbance and fluorescence metrics). Discrete measurements of CO2 and CH4 fluxes were
