Summary

This data release includes five comma delimited tables that support a pilot study on identifying and monitoring source sediment fingerprints within Stony Clove Creek, Catskills, NY. These tables consist of sediment particle size information, elemental analysis results, stable isotope analysis results, and percent fines for the samples collected. "SourceSamples_Info.csv" and "TargetSamples_Info.csv" contain the fine sediment yields for each individual source and target sample, respectively. "SourceSamples_noRoad.csv" and "TargetSamples_halfDL.csv" contain the elemental, stable isotope, and grain size results for each individual source and target sample, respectively. "ReportingLimits.csv" contains the elemental reporting limits provided [...]
