Sediment short cores from Higher Swineshaw and Cowbury Dale reservoirs, UK, 2018

This dataset contains details of sediment geochemistry, loss-on-ignition and sediment median particle size for two short reservoir cores collected from two reservoirs (Cowbury Dale and Higher Swineshaw), Stalybridge Tameside, Manchester. Cores were collected in 2018 following a severe moorland wildfire (July 2018) in the two reservoir catchments. Cores were collected from the deepest part of the reservoir using gravity coring and sampled at 2.5 mm intervals for analysis. The work was supported by the Natural Environment Research Council (Grant NE/S011560/1). Full details about this dataset can be found at https://doi.org/10.5285/4f447446-5461-48b2-b154-ff7094176502

本数据集详尽记录了沉积物地球化学特征、燃烧失重以及沉积物中值粒径信息，涉及从曼彻斯特斯塔利布里奇泰姆斯黑德地区两个水库（考伯里代尔和更高斯温舍）所采集的两个短段水库核心样本。这些核心样本是在2018年，紧随两次水库集水区内的严重荒野火灾（2018年7月）之后收集的。核心样本的采集地点位于水库最深部，采用重力钻探法完成，并以2.5毫米的间隔进行采样分析。本研究得到自然环境研究委员会（Natural Environment Research Council，简称NERC）的资助（资助编号NE/S011560/1）。关于本数据集的详细信息，可查阅https://doi.org/10.5285/4f447446-5461-48b2-b154-ff7094176502。
