Chemical and isotopic data from wetland pond water samples collected in the Cottonwood Lake Study Area, Stutsman County, North Dakota, USA, 2015–2019

October 28, 2024

This U.S. Geological Survey data release contains chemical, isotopic, and physical data from wetland pond water samples collected at the Cottonwood Lake Study Area, Stutsman County, North Dakota, USA. Samples were collected monthly during the growing season (April or May through September) in 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2019 and in August 2018. Temperature, specific conductance, and pH were measured in situ. Major cations, select trace cations, chloride, fluoride, sulfate, and nitrate were determined for all samples. Stable oxygen and hydrogen isotope ratios of water were determined for samples collected from 2015 to 2017. Total dissolved nitrogen, dissolved organic carbon, absorbance at 254 nm, and stable carbon isotope ratios of dissolved inorganic carbon were determined for samples collected in 2015 and 2016. Dissolved ammonium and phosphate were determined for samples collected in 2016 and April and May 2017.
