This data publication contains tabular stream sampling data collected from five streams located in five independent watersheds. Streamwater samples were taken along the Juneau, Alaska road system from the following streams: Cowee Creek, Fish Creek, Herbert River, Mendenhall River, and Peterson Creek. Water samples were collected intermittently, from weekly to monthly, from 2015 through 2020. Data provided include streamwater temperature, pH, and alkalinity. Daily stream discharge measurements recorded between 2015 and 2020 (continuity of measurements vary across the streams) are also provided for all sites except the Mendenhall River. The goal of collecting these data was to provide a long-term record of stream chemical constituents and streamwater flow to model watershed chemical behavior and freshwater element flux from the watersheds. For more information about these data and this study, see Harley et al. (in review).
