Data in this data release were obtained for water samples collected under Yellowstone National Park Research Permit YELL-05194 in 2017 through the Integrated Yellowstone Studies Project funded by the Mineral Resources Program. Isotope-spiked incubations were carried out to determine methylation and demethylation potential for Frying Pan spring, Crystal Sister East, Crystal Sister West, and Turbulent Pool, which were selected based on existing data on total mercury and methylmercury concentrations (see companion data release (https://doi.org/10.5066/P9IUY03O). The data represent the experimental conditions of incubation experiments (temperature, time, and experimental spikes) and concentration data associated with...

We installed an eddy covariance station on July 10, 2018 at Bison Flat, an acid-sulfate, vapor-dominated area (0.04-km2) in Norris Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, WY to monitor variations in hydrothermal gas and heat emissions. Since then, this station has measured CO2, H2O and sensible and latent heat fluxes, air temperature and pressure, and wind speed and direction on a half-hourly basis. We also measured soil CO2 fluxes and temperatures on a grid using the accumulation chamber method and thermocouple probes, respectively, on July 11-12, 2018 and soil CO2 fluxes only on June 25, 2019. On July 10, 2018 and June 24, 2019, we collected fumarole gas samples for analysis of bulk chemical and carbon (d13C-CO2)...

Note: No formal accuracy tests were conducted and these data are disseminated to allow discussion related to methods. Sample Analyses: Samples were processed at both the USGS in Menlo Park, CA, and at UC Berkeley following established methodology for separating organic material from sinter (Howald et al., 2014; Lowenstern et al., 2016; Slagter et al., 2019). First, the exterior surface of each sample was removed using a rock saw, and then any further material was removed if there was any visible algal material in the interior of the sample. Second, samples underwent a series of chemical baths. Samples were crushed and soaked in 30% hydrogen peroxide for 48 hours to remove any remaining modern algae. Once cleaned,...

Album caption and index card: Hot River. Hot carbonated spring water undercut the old horizontally bedded travertine deposits until individual blocks collapsed under their own weight. Direction of flow is toward the viewer. Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. n.d. Published as Figure 23, U.S. Geological Survey. Bulletin 1444. 1978.

Album caption and index card: Seismic Geyser, during an explosive thermal eruption. Note the trees that have been killed by the heat and eruptive activity. According to George D. Marler of the U.S. National Park Service, this geyser developed from a crack caused by the Hebgen Lake Earthquake of August 17, 1959. Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. 1970.

Album caption and index card: Photo outfit at the summit of Mt. Washburn. [Yellowstone National Park] Wyoming. n.d. Handwritten note on album caption: 1883 Typed information on back of duplicate photograph: One of Jackson's assistants holds Hypo, the aptly-named mule, who at times, carried as much as 350 pounds of photo equipment. On summit of Mount Washburn, Yellowstone area, Wyoming Territory. Year: 1874. Photo by W.H. Jackson. Neg. no. 57-HS-711 in the National Archives. Published on page 30, lower left photograph, of the USGS GIP, Ferdinand Vandiveer Hayden and the Founding of the Yellowstone National Park. Personal email communication from Alan Terrell on January 23, 2021, "The date is likely 1871 since...
