Summary

Abstract: By synthesizing and analyzing all openly accessible water discharge and water quality data, we present in this dataset an updated, quantitative picture of the status of observational data on hydrological and hydrochemical fluxes from the pan-Arctic drainage basin to the ocean. Parameters studied are discharge, carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and sediment.
