Oxygen and Deuterium Isotope Measurements from Siberia, 2002-2004
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/106.ARCSS157

Summary
Investigators performed a stable isotope analysis of rain, snow, the Kolyma
River, and a local stream near Cherskii, Siberia from 30 June 2002 through 27
April 2004. As part of the Russian-American Initiative on Shelf-land
Environments (RAISE) program, this research was designed to quantify the
impacts of disturbance on the seasonal cycle of atmospheric carbon dioxide and
the discharge of carbon and nitrogen into the Arctic Ocean in forest and
shrubby tundra regions. Monitoring the stable isotopic composition of water
runoff from Arctic rivers provides a means to investigate integrated
basin-scale changes. Investigators measured river water and precipitation 18O
and D to partition the river flow into snow and rain components in the Kolyma
River basin (Welp et al. 2005). Data are tab-delimited ASCII text files. A
supplementary graph of the data is also provided in JPEG format.
