The dataset is comprised of analyses of sediment cores and sediment trap samples from ferruginous and meromictic Brownie Lake, Minnesota, U.S.A from January 2018 through February 2021. The dataset includes bulk sediment characteristics including water content, grain size, major and minor elements. Voltammetric scans were collected on porewaters and lake waters. Sediment porewaters were analyzed for pH, total alkalinity, ferrous iron, and dissolved sulfur species contents. Sediment samples were maintained under the exclusion of oxygen for analysis by synchrotron-based X-ray absorption spectroscopy.more » « less

This dataset contains ascii text files of latitude, longitude, and water depth data which were collected using a pole-mounted multibeam echosounder system from the R/V Ukpik in July-August, 2021. Dr. Emily Eidam was the team lead and Dan Duncan was the multibeam operator. The data were collected along discrete tracklines across Harrison Bay. The general study was seaward of the Colville Delta between Cape Halkett to the west and Oliktok Point to the east, with a maximum seaward extent to water depths of approximately 30 meters (m) (about half to three-quarters of the way across the shelf from the shoreline). The dataset also contains a netcdf file of bathymetric change which was computed as the difference between the combined 2021 and 2022 data contained in this archive and a 1950s dataset which was recently corrected and is publicly available through Zimmerman et al., 2022 (doi.org/10.1016/j.csr.2022.104745). The multibeam data provide information about a rich diversity of seabed features including large and small ice-keel scours, sand waves, strudel scour pits, and unusual scoured substrates. A detailed description of these datasets is provided in an in-preparation manuscript (Eidam et al., Seafloor sediments and morphologic features of Harrison Bay in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea). The bathymetric change data illustrates erosion of the inner and inner-middle shelf over the past ~70 years, including erosion of up to ~3 m near Cape Halkett and on the Colville Delta front. These changes are addressed in detail in Heath, 2024 (Oregon State University Master of Science Thesis, "Sedimentation and Erosion on an Arctic Continental Shelf: Harrison Bay and Colville River Delta, Alaska").more » « less

Carbon dioxide is inexpensive and abundant, and its prevalence as waste makes it attractive as a sustainable chemical feedstock. Although there are examples of copolymerizations of CO2 with high-energy monomers, the direct copolymerization of CO2 with olefins has not been reported. Herein, an alternate route to functionalizable, recyclable polyesters derived from CO2, butadiene and hydrogen via an intermediary lactone, 3-ethyl-6-vinyltetrahydro-2H-pyran-2-one, is described. Catalytic ring-opening polymerization of the lactone by 1,5,7-triazabicyclo[4.4.0]dec-5-ene yields polyesters with molar masses up to 13.6 kg/mol and pendent vinyl sidechains that can undergo post-polymerization functionalization. The polymer has a low ceiling temperature of 138 ºC, allowing for facile chemical recycling, and is inherently biodegradable under aerobic aqueous conditions (OECD-301B protocol). These results mark the first example of a well-defined polyester derived from CO2, olefins and hydrogen, expanding access to new polymer feedstocks that were once considered unfeasible.more » « less
