The data contains site characteristics (water body type, elevation, catchment area) and water chemistry data (pH, dissolved and particulate organic carbon concentrations (DOC and POC)). The composition of DOM extracted by different methods was analysed by elemental analysis; there are data for carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen content.
The dataset result from an experiment to determine the reliability of various methods to extract dissolved organic matter (DOM) from freshwaters in the UK.
