These data reflect the metal content of some Casey and Wilkes melt lakes and streams. In melt lakes, the dissolved metal concentration and diffusive gradient in thin-film technique (DGT) with a Chelex-100 binding resin to measure DGT-labile metal concentrations. In melt streams, dried sediments were...
