Fluorescence spectroscopy measurements of dissolved organic carbon in the Broadkill River estuary from 2020-01-22 to 2020-09-09 (NCEI Accession 0241383)

Metadata Updated: March 17, 2023

The data presented in this submission was for the Delaware Sea Grant project R/HCE-37 titled "Fingerprinting the sources or organic matter using fluorescence spectroscopy: a feasibility study in the Broadkill River estuary." There were three types of samples included, the first was insitu samples from the Broadkill River watershed, located in southern Delaware, USA. Samples were collected at three different times of the year to represent seasonality. The second type of sample was source samples that represented the different land uses found within the watershed. The third type was the source mix samples, which mixed the varying sources to try to mimic the natural environment. Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations were measured on each sample as well as ultra-violet/visible and fluorescence spectroscopy in the form of the specific ultra-violet absorbance at the wavelength 254 nm (SUVA254) and excitation-emission matrices (EEMs).
