A series of terrestrial water samples have been collected and analyzed for dissolved organic carbon levels. This dataset shows concentrations of dissolved organic carbon found in various streams of the McMurdo Dry Valleys. 1990-11-19 2023-12-23 ground condition As needed Coordinates taken from 1996-97 GPS measurements at center of creek where it enters Lake Fryxell Parent Stream: Aiken Creek Provenance : GPS96-97.DOC ID: aiken_mouth 163.266326900000 163.266326900000 -77.603622000000 -77.603622000000 18m 18m meter USGS site 9;
