Chemical and isotopic compositions of surface and pore waters from western Greenland, 2013

These data consist of chemical and isotopic compositions of water collected from five locations in western Greenland. The locations extend in a 170-km transect from the coast near the town of Sisimiut to the ice sheet near the town of Kangerlussuaq. The sites contain a total of seven distinct waters...

Description
Summary:These data consist of chemical and isotopic compositions of water collected from five locations in western Greenland. The locations extend in a 170-km transect from the coast near the town of Sisimiut to the ice sheet near the town of Kangerlussuaq. The sites contain a total of seven distinct watersheds. Six watersheds are disconnected from the ice sheet by hydrologic divides and the seventh watershed drains primarily ice sheet melt water. All samples were collected during the summer melt season 2013.
