Segama River suspended sediment concentration, conductivity, and pH data 1992-1994

Description SummaryThe data set includes results from the daily water sampling at the river flow monitoring site and water level gauge on the left bank of the Segama River immediately upstream of the suspension footbridge at the Danum Valley Field Center for the period 01 Jan 1992 to 15 Sep 1994. Key variables include the date, time, water level on the gauge post (i.e, stage), suspended sediment concentration in mg l-1, conductivity and pH for each sample are listed.Notes for users1. The coordinate provided is only an approximate as no GPS coordinates were recorded during the sampling period.Contact PersonEmeritus Professor Ian Douglas ([e-mail]) Funding These data were collected as part of research funded by: Natural Environment Research Council (Standard grant , GR3/6360;GR3/9439;GR9/871;GR 3/9439 ) UK Overseas Development Agency Forestry Research Programme (Standard grant , R4603 ) EU INDFORSUS Project (Standard grant , ERBIC18CT960102 ) This dataset is released under the CC-BY 4.0 licence, requiring that you cite the dataset in any outputs, but has the additional condition that you acknowledge the contribution of these funders in any outputs.
