Study Site: Qarlikturvik Valley, Bylot Island, Nunavut
Purpose: The primary objective of this dataset is to assess the bioreactivity of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and to identify potential drivers of DOM decomposition.
Abstract: This dataset presents the results of a study conducted on 15 ponds sampled on July 27, 2017, in the Qarlikturvik Valley, Bylot Island (73°09’N, 79°58’W). The ponds are located on a 3–5 m thick terrace resulting from the aggradation of Holocene deposits composed of peat mixed with aeolian sands and silts (syngenetic permafrost).
