On a selected set of samples nutrient analyses were carried out. Different flow conditions were targeted in sampling to understand the hydrological controls on the carbon concentrations and fluxes. DIC samples were collected in pre-acidified (150 micro litre of concentrated phosphoric acid) evacuated 12 millilitre (ml) exetainers (Labco Ltd). Using a 10 ml syringe (rinsed with sample water 3 times) sample was injected into the exetainers and the needle withdrawn under water to prevent air ingress. On each sampling occasion triplicate exetainers were filled. DIC samples were analysed according to the headspace method on Thermo-Fisher-Scientific Gas Bench/Delta V Plus for DIC concentration and isotopic composition Delta 13 Carbon -DIC. Initially two replicate exetainers were analysed (in randomised order) and the third sample used as a backup to check if a good agreement was not achieved between the first two. This technique is further described in Waldron et al. 2014.\n\nDOC samples were collected in polyethylene bottles and filtered through pre-furnaced (8 hours at 450 degrees Celsius ) 0.7 micro metre glassfibre filter paper (Whatman GF/F) on the day of sampling and stored refrigerated in Nalgene bottles. Prior to the analysis aliquots of the samples were acidified to pH 3.9 and degassed to remove any DIC and analysed for DOC concentration by combustion (Thermalox TOC 2020, Analytical Sciences). The filter papers were air-dried and stored in air tight containers with indicating silica gel as a drying agent. POC concentration was measured by loss on ignition. In the laboratory the filter papers were first oven dried (3 hours at 105 degrees Celsius) to establish the dry weight which was measured on a five figure balance. Then the filter papers were furnace (16 hours at 375 degrees Celsius) and re-weighed. The weight loss was converted to mg C assuming percentage Organic Carbon is equal to 50 percent. \n\nAliquots of the filtered water sample were analysed for calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) by Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (Perkin Elmer Analyst 400). Potassium (K) and sodium (Na) concentrations were determined by flame photometry (Sherwood Scientific M410). Colorimetric method was used to measure total dissolved phosphorus (totP) and silicon (Si). Phosphorus analysis is based on the formation of a phosphomolybdate complex which is then reduced using ascorbic acid to give blue colour that can be measured at 880 or 700 Nano metres (nm). Silica was converted to a coloured compound using the Heteropoly Blue Molybdosilicate method (American Public Health Association, 1999) and measured at 650 nm.\n\nData was entered into Excel spreadsheets and exported as comma separated files for ingestion into the Environmental Information Data Centre (EIDC).","metadataDate":"2026-06-27T18:13:51","notGEMINI":true,"onlineResources":[{"url":"https://data-package.ceh.ac.uk/data/ee1b9eb7-6fbd-4dd5-8f8f-e07d32c057e4","name":"Download the data","description":"Download a copy of this data","function":"download","type":"OTHER"},{"url":"https://data-package.ceh.ac.uk/sd/ee1b9eb7-6fbd-4dd5-8f8f-e07d32c057e4.zip","name":"Supporting information","description":"Supporting information available to assist in re-use of this dataset","function":"information","type":"OTHER"}],"pointsOfContact":[{"honorificPrefix":"Dr","familyName":"Vihermaa","givenName":"Leena","organisationName":"University of Glasgow","organisationIdentifier":"https://ror.org/00vtgdb53","role":"pointOfContact","email":"Leena.Vihermaa@glasgow.ac.uk","address":{"deliveryPoint":"School of Geographical and Earth Sciences","city":"Glasgow","postalCode":"G12 8QQ","country":"United Kingdom"},"fullName":"Vihermaa, L.","pointOfContact":"University of Glasgow"}],"publicationDate":"2016-04-25T00:00:00.000Z","publishers":[{"organisationName":"NERC Environmental Information Data Centre","organisationIdentifier":"https://ror.org/04xw4m193","role":"publisher","email":"info@eidc.ac.uk"}],"relationships":[{"relation":"http://purl.org/dc/terms/isPartOf","target":"8087d803-4dde-4113-9b26-fb1cd0627681"}],"resourceIdentifiers":[{"code":"https://catalogue.ceh.ac.uk/id/ee1b9eb7-6fbd-4dd5-8f8f-e07d32c057e4"},{"code":"10.5285/ee1b9eb7-6fbd-4dd5-8f8f-e07d32c057e4","codeSpace":"doi"}],"resourceMaintenance":[{"frequencyOfUpdate":"notPlanned"}],"resourceType":{"value":"dataset"},"responsibleParties":[{"honorificPrefix":"Dr","familyName":"Vihermaa","givenName":"Leena","organisationName":"University of Glasgow","organisationIdentifier":"https://ror.org/00vtgdb53","role":"pointOfContact","email":"Leena.Vihermaa@glasgow.ac.uk","address":{"deliveryPoint":"School of Geographical and Earth Sciences","city":"Glasgow","postalCode":"G12 8QQ","country":"United Kingdom"},"fullName":"Vihermaa, L.","pointOfContact":"University of Glasgow"},{"familyName":"Vihermaa","givenName":"L.E.","organisationName":"University of Glasgow","organisationIdentifier":"https://ror.org/00vtgdb53","role":"author","email":"Leena.Vihermaa@glasgow.ac.uk","nameIdentifier":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-6263-1252","address":{"deliveryPoint":"School of Geographical and Earth Sciences","city":"Glasgow","postalCode":"G12 8QQ","country":"United Kingdom"},"fullName":"Vihermaa, L.E."},{"familyName":"Waldron","givenName":"S.","organisationName":"University of Glasgow","organisationIdentifier":"https://ror.org/00vtgdb53","role":"author","email":"Susan.Waldron@glasgow.ac.uk","nameIdentifier":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2683-0761","address":{"deliveryPoint":"School of Geographical and Earth Sciences","city":"Glasgow","postalCode":"G12 8QQ","country":"United Kingdom"},"fullName":"Waldron, S."},{"familyName":"Newton","givenName":"J.","organisationName":"Scottish Universities Environmental Research Centre","role":"author","email":" Jason.Newton@glasgow.ac.uk","nameIdentifier":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7594-3693","address":{"deliveryPoint":"Rankine Avenue, Scottish Enterprise Technology Park","city":"East Kilbride","administrativeArea":"South Lanarchshire","postalCode":"G75 0QF","country":"United Kingdom"},"fullName":"Newton, J."},{"familyName":"Donets","givenName":"V.","organisationName":"University of Glasgow","organisationIdentifier":"https://ror.org/00vtgdb53","role":"author","email":"enquiries@ceh.ac.uk","nameIdentifier":"https://orcid.org/0000-0001-8257-1285","address":{"deliveryPoint":"School of Chemistry","city":"Glasgow","postalCode":"G12 8QQ","country":"United Kingdom"},"fullName":"Donets, V."},{"organisationName":"NERC EDS Environmental Information Data Centre","organisationIdentifier":"https://ror.org/04xw4m193","role":"custodian","email":"info@eidc.ac.uk"},{"organisationName":"NERC Environmental Information Data Centre","organisationIdentifier":"https://ror.org/04xw4m193","role":"publisher","email":"info@eidc.ac.uk"}],"spatialReferenceSystems":[{"code":"http://www.opengis.net/def/crs/EPSG/0/4326","title":"WGS 84"}],"spatialRepresentationTypes":["textTable"],"spatialResolutions":[{"distance":".01","uom":"degrees"}],"supplemental":[{"description":"Waldron, S., E.
