Surface water geochemistry along St. Louis River Estuary (Duluth/Superior, MN/WI)

This dataset is aimed at understanding changes in surface water chemistry associated with urbanization in the Great Lakes region. Surface water chemistry including cations, anions, organic and inorganic carbon, and nitrogen were collected from six locations along St. Louis River – a freshwater estuary entering Lake Superior (Duluth/Superior, MN/WI). The Duluth/Superior, MN/WI metropolitan area is the largest port on the United States side of Lake Superior. Samples were collected near different land uses every two weeks from late July 2023 to the onset of ice cover in November 2023. Water samples were analyzed using In-Situ AquaTroll 500 Multiparameter Sonde with Ammonium Ion Selective Electrode and Chlorophyll-a sensor (unfiltered), METTLER TOLEDO FiveEasy Plus FP20 and METTLER TOLEDO LE407 probe (unfiltered); HACH DR300 Pocket Colorimeter Iron FerroVer (filtered 0.22 μm in field); Shimadzu TOC-L Total Organic Carbon Analyzer with TNM-L Total Nitrogen Unit (filtered 0.22 μm in field); Agilent 8900 triple quadrupole ICP-MS (ICP-QQQ) (filtered 0.22 μm in field); and Dionex ICS-6000 HPIC System (filtered 0.22 μm in field).The data package is comprised of 5 files. dd.csv contains the description of columns in Geochemistry_LSNERR_water.csv and Sampling_sites.csv. flmd.csv contains descriptions of each file in the dataset. README.txt contains description of the dataset structure and file content. Geochemistry_LSNERR_water.csv contains geochemistry data for six sampling locations along the St. Louis River. Sampling_sites.csv contains latitude and longitude coordinates for each of the six sampling site locations along the St. Louis River.This data has not been previously published.
