Title

Geochemistry and grain size of terrestrial sediments collected across a stream network, Swineshaw Moor, UK, 2018

Abstract

This dataset contains details of sediment geochemistry, loss-on-ignition and sediment median particle size for terrestrial sediment samples collected across the stream network of Harehill and Swineshaw Moors, Stalybridge, Tameside, Manchester. Samples were collected on three occasions in 2018 following a severe moorland wildfire (July 2018). Sediment samples were collected using stream sediment traps which accumulated sediments between the dates of sampling. Sediment traps were emptied in the field and samples were returned to the laboratory for analysis. The work was supported by the Natural Environment Research Council (Grant NE/S011560/1).

Lineage

Samples were collected from seven sites in the stream network on three occasions (04/10/2018, 13/11/2018 and 13/12/2018). Bulk samples were subsampled for geochemistry (elemental analysis mg/g), loss on ignition (%) and median particle size (mm) which was determined in the laboratory.
