SBC LTER: Beach: Distribution of terrestrial organic material in intertidal and nearshore marine sediment due to debris flow response efforts

These data describe the distribution and processing of terrestrial
organic material observed in the Santa Barbara Channel (Goleta
Bay) during the spring of 2018. Specifically, beach, slough, and
marine sediments were sampled during and after the debris disposal
event that took place between January and February 2018 following
the Thomas Fire and the subsequent Montecito Debris Flow. Data are
contained in one table, including organic carbon, carbon isotope,
lignin phenol, and pyrogenic carbon measurements analyzed from
sediment cores collected at different depths and locations in the
nearshore region.
