This dataset consists in 324 measurements of elemental (EC) and organic carbon (OC) concentrations in snow samples collected at 49 sites across the Svalbard archipelago, Norway, between 2007 and 2018. The samples were collected during a spatial survey in Svalbard conducted in April 2016, and as part of a program of surface snow monitoring on northeastern Spitsbergen carried out between 2007 and 2018. The EC and OC concentrations were measured by the thermo-optical transmittance method.
