Hyporheic, Floodplain, and Surface Water (on Floodplain and River) Geochemical Datasets, and Shapefiles on Meander C at the East River, Colorado.
Description
The purpose of this dataset was to sample surface water and groundwater geochemistry at random locations in the East River, Colorado to provide a broad spatial dataset of geochemistry. The East River is part of the Watershed Function Scientific Focus Area (WFSFA) located in the Upper Colorado River Basin, United States. We conducted this random sampling at multiple time points including during the snowmelt flooding stage, during peak flood, during the falling limb of flood, and during baseflow. This datasets contain many datafiles. We include flat text files of surface water geochemistry including surface water on the floodplain and surface water in the river, geochemistry of floodplain pore-water samples, and geochemistry of hyporheic pore-water samples. All datasets are also included as shapefiles so location geochemistry is co-located with sampling locations and sampling depths. This datasets also has the locations of small channels, and hollows that are on top of floodplain Meander C. These small channels funnel surface water from the hillslope through the floodplain and out to the river. All text datasets can be analyzed with software such as Excel or R. All shapefiles can be viewed with freely available R packages such as Leaflet.
