This dataset contains leaf stable isotope (\u03b4\u00b9\u00b3C, \u03b4\u00b9\u2075N) and elemental composition (carbon and nitrogen content, C:N ratio) data for two dominant high-arctic dwarf shrubs, Dryas octopetala L. and Salix polaris Wahlenb. Samples were collected repeatedly during the peak of the growing season (July) from 2021 to 2024 at a continuous permafrost site in the Brogger Peninsula, near Ny-Alesund, Svalbard

This dataset contains stable isotope (\u03b4\u00b9\u00b3C, \u03b4\u00b9\u2075N) and elemental composition (carbon and nitrogen content, C:N ratio) data for soil samples. Samples were collected during the peak of the growing season (July) in 2021 and 2022 at the CCT continuous permafrost site in the Br\u00f8gger Peninsula, near Ny-\u00c5lesund, Svalbard. The dataset distinguishes between three soil categories: bare soil, soil collected beneath the high-arctic dwarf shrub Dryas octopetala L., and soil collected beneath Salix polaris Wahlenb.

Activities: - PM1 sampling by a High-Volume Sampler (TECORA eco-highvol equipped with digital PM1 sampling inlet, nominal flow 500 lpm) on pre-washed and pre-baked quartz-fiber filters (PALL, Ø= 18cm). Sampling time: 3-4 days per sample. - Off-line filter based AMS characterization of water soluble non-refractory sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, chloride, and organic mass (NR-PM1). - Off-line filter-based spectroscopic characterization of the water-soluble organic mass in term of chemical functional groups and specific markers by means of proton-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy (H-NMR). - Source apportionment of organic aerosol by means of multivariate statistical techniques (namely Positive Matrix Factorization, PMF, and other factor analysis methods) applied on both AMS and NMR spectral datasets. Available data: -NMR functional groups (Aromatics, anomeric/vynilic, H-C-O, H-C-C=, H-C) -NMR tracers: Levoglucosan, Methane-sulphonic acid (MSA), Hydroxymethane-sulphonic acid (HMSA), Amines (mono-, di- and tri-methyl amines, etc.) -HR-TOF-AMS (off-line): main species (Org, SO4, NO3, NH4, Chl), elemental ratios (OM:OC, O:C, H:C) & tracer fragments (m/z43, 44, 60 etc.) -NMR & AMS OA source apportionment

Aerosol sampling by a High-Volume Sampler (TECORA eco-highvol equipped with digital PM1 sampling inlet, nominal flow 500 lpm) for the collection of ambient aerosol particles with aerodynamic diameter < 1 μm (PM1) on pre-washed and pre-baked quartz-fiber filters (PALL, Ø= 18cm). Sampling time: 3-4 days per sample. A multi-technique analytical approach for the characterization of the sampled organic aerosol: Organic matter (OM) and Organic Nitrogen (ON). Analytical techniques employed are based on nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) and Aerosol Mass Spectrometry (HR-TOF-AMS applied off-line) for the OM characterization, C and N elemental analysis (CN-EA) and ion chromatography (IC) for inorganic ions and alkyl-amines. -NMR functional groups (Aromatics, anomeric/vynilic, H-C-O, H-C-C=, H.C) -NMR tracers: Levoglucosan, Methane-sulphonic acid (MSA), Hydroxymethane-sulphonic acid (HMSA), Amines (mono-, di- and tri-methyl amines, etc.) -HR-TOF-AMS (off-line): main species (Org, SO4, NO3, NH4, Chl), elemental ratios (OM:OC, O:C, H:C) & tracer fragments (m/z43, 44, 60 etc.) -NMR & AMS OA source apportionment
