It includes: (1) surface water chemistry and subfossil diatom (Bacillariophyta) assemblages in 16 lakes at or near Scotty Creek collected in mid-July, 2018; (2) high-resolution logger data for depth, oxygen, light, and temperature profiles over the 2019 ice-free season in First Lake and Goose Lake at the Scotty Creek Research Station; (3) buffer and overlay landscape analysis of fen and collapse scar area within a 250 m buffer of lake shorelines for 9 lakes in the Scotty Creek basin; (4) Water chemistry and subfossil diatom assemblages in wetlands and substrate samples (submerged vegetation, submerged peat, sediment, and grasses) from shoreline environments around Goose Lake, collected in June, 2019. Data accompanies Kristen Coleman’s PhD dissertation (York, Geography).enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 InternationalLakesDiatomsPaleolimnologyWater qualityDiscontinuous permafrost peatlandsLimnology and diatom ecology of shallow lakes in a rapidly thawing discontinuous permafrost peatlandDataset
