This dataset contains compound-specific hydrogen (δ2H) and carbon (δ13C) isotope compositions and concentrations of long-chain n-alkanes and fatty acids (n-alkanoic acids) from the ROT21 sediment record of Rotsee, Central Switzerland (47°04′10″N, 8°18′48″E, 419 m a.s.l.). Sediment cores were retrieved in October 2021 using a UWITEC gravity corer, and the dataset spans the past ~13,000 years based on 19 radiocarbon dates (terrestrial and aquatic macrofossils) integrated with 210Pb and 137Cs profiles (see De Jonge et al., 2025). Laboratory analyses were conducted between February 2023 and November 2024 at the University of Basel. Sediment samples (~2–5 g) were sub-sampled, freeze-dried, spiked with internal standards (n-C19-alkanoic acid, n-C36-alkane, 2-octadecanone, and n-C21-alkanol), and extracted with dichloromethane/methanol (9:1, v/v) using an Accelerated Solvent Extractor (Dionex ASE 350, Thermo Fisher Scientific). Following saponification, neutral fractions were separated via silica gel chromatography, and fatty acids were converted to fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs). Both n-alkanes and FAMEs were further purified to isolate saturated compounds using AgNO3-impregnated silica gel columns, then analyzed and quantified by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID). Peak areas were normalized to recovery standards to account for potential losses during sample handling, and compounds were identified by comparison with external standards. Compound-specific δ2H and δ13C values were determined by gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC-IRMS) and normalized to the VSMOW-SLAP (δ2H) and VPDB (δ13C) scales. Analytical precision was ±3-5 ‰ for δ2H and ±0.2–0.3 ‰ for δ13C. The dataset was generated to reconstruct past hydroclimate and vegetation dynamics in Central Europe using plant wax δ2H records. Full methodological details are provided in the study: Central Europe hydroclimate since the Younger Dryas inferred from vegetation-corrected sedimentary plant wax δ2H values (Santos et al., 2026).
Time series of stable isotopes (δ2H and δ18O) were analyzed in water samples collected near the A. P. Møller Skolen, Schleswig (Kleine Breite, Schlei), in biweekly to monthly intervals between March 2020 and March 2021. Water was sampled with a pipette from ca. 0.5 m below water surface and directly transferred into a measurement vial. Isotope analysis was conducted at IGB Berlin, using a Picarro L2130-i cavity ring-down spectrometer. Water chemical parameters were measured in-situ with a modular WTW 3440 multiparameter devices and regularly calibrated conductivity cells (MPP 930 IDS, TetraCon® 925-P). The data give information about the seasonal isotope amplitude at the sampled locations and about spatial variability along the transects.
Time series of stable isotopes (δ2H and δ18O) were analyzed in water samples taken near the harbour of Kloster (Hiddensee), in biweekly to monthly intervals between March 2020 and March 2021. Water was sampled with a pipette from ca. 0.5 m below water surface and directly transferred into a measurement vial. Isotope analysis was conducted at IGB Berlin, using a Picarro L2130-i cavity ring-down spectrometer. Water chemical parameters were measured in-situ with WTW multiparameter measurement devices. The data give information about the seasonal isotope amplitude at the sampled locations and about spatial variability along the transects.
Water isotopes (δ2H and δ18O) were analyzed in samples collected in lakes associated to major riverine systems in northeastern Germany throughout 2020. This sub-dataset is derived from water samples taken at buoys temporarily installed in deep parts of the lake. Samples were taken monthly to bimonthly from March to October 2020. A Limnos water sampler was used to obtain samples from 1 m below water surface. Isotope analysis was conducted at IGB Berlin, using a Picarro L2130-i cavity ring-down spectrometer. Water temperatures were measured in similar depths with an Aqua TROLL 600 multiparameter sonde (In-Situ, Fort Collins, CO, USA). The data give information about the seasonal isotope amplitude in the sampled lakes and about spatial isotope variability in different branches of the associated riverine systems.
Water isotopes (δ2H and δ18O) were analyzed in samples collected in lakes associated to major riverine systems in northeastern Germany throughout 2020. This sub-dataset is derived from water samples taken at multiple spatially distributed spots in four selected lakes. A Limnos water sampler was used to obtain samples from 1 m below water surface on 29th and 30th September 2020. Isotope analysis was conducted at IGB Berlin, using a Picarro L2130-i cavity ring-down spectrometer.
Time series of stable isotopes (δ2H and δ18O) were analyzed in water samples collected at the Zingster Bodden chain in biweekly to monthly intervals between March 2020 and March 2021. Herefore, a Limnos sampler was used to obtain water from 0.5 to 1 m below surface. In the laboratory, a WTW 1970i conductivity meter and TetraCon 325 measuring cell were used to analyse electrical conductivity. Sub-samples were transferred into measurement vials before isotope analysis was conducted at IGB Berlin, using a Picarro L2130-i cavity ring-down spectrometer. Water chemical parameters were measured with regularly calibrated WTW multiparameter devices. The data give information about the seasonal isotope amplitude at the sampled locations and about spatial variability along the transects.
Water isotopes (δ2H and δ18O) were analyzed in samples collected in lakes associated to major riverine systems in northeastern Germany throughout 2020. This sub-dataset is derived from water samples collected from lake shores. Samples were taken in March and July 2020 with a pipette from 40-60 cm depth below water surface and directly transferred into a measurement vial. Stable isotope analysis was conducted at IGB Berlin, using a Picarro L2130-i cavity ring-down spectrometer. The data give information about the seasonal isotope amplitude in the sampled lakes and about spatial isotope variability in different branches of the associated riverine systems.
Water isotopes (δ2H and δ18O) were analyzed in samples collected in lakes associated to major riverine systems in northeastern Germany throughout 2020. The dataset is derived from water samples taken at a) lake shores (sampled in March and July 2020); b) buoys temporarily installed in deep parts of the lake (sampled monthly from March to October 2020); c) multiple spatially distributed spots in four selected lakes (in September 2020); d) the outflow of Müggelsee (sampled biweekly from March 2020 to January 2021). At shores, water was sampled with a pipette from 40-60 cm below water surface and directly transferred into a measurement vial, while at buoys a Limnos water sampler was used to obtain samples from 1 m below surface.
