Hydrological control of chemical weathering and rock-carbon fluxes: East River, Colorado

This data package is used in the manuscript entitled “Hydrological control of chemical weathering and rock-carbon fluxes”. The field study was conducted in a lower montane hillslope of the East River watershed, underlain by Mancos Shale, within the lower 140 m section of a transect that extends nearly 1 km to its local peak. The data in this package, in CSV file format, were collected from Fall 2016 to fall 2021, including depth-resolved dynamic water table depths, subsurface water fluxes, solid phase (soil to bedrock) chemical compositions, geochemical properties of porewater and pore-gas, including radio carbon concentrations. The detailed methods of field studies, laboratory chemical analyses, and calculations are described in the Methods section and in the dataset file: Wan_et_al_Methods.pdf. The dataset additionally includes a file-level metadata (flmd.csv) file that lists each file contained in the dataset with associated metadata; and a data dictionary (dd.csv) file that contains column/row headers used throughout the files along with a definition, units, and data type.
