| Summary: | This data set is from a whole-lake mixing experiment conducted near Kangerlussuaq, Greenland over the summers of 2013 and 2014. The primary variable manipulated was temperature structure of the lake, and the primary response variables were the abundances of specific diatom taxa. Two lakes were employed in the experiment: one that served as a control in both years with no manipulation, and another that served as the experimental lake (Lake SS16) that was not manipulated in 2013 but was manipulated in 2014. Specifically, in 2014, a Solar Bee hydraulic lift system was installed to deepen the surface, mixed warm layer from 4 to 8 m in the experimental lake. Data provided here are the daily water column temperature values as well as the integrated (5 day time steps) diatom samples from sediment traps, listed by species in common to both lakes over both years.
