This database is about the environmental radioactivity analyzed in cryoconite samples collected on the surface of the Flade Isblink ice cap, in NE Greenland.46 samples of cryoconite were collected on 2nd and 3rd of August 2022 on the surface of the glacier. Moreover, 2 samples from riverine sediment...
