Water properties and DOC oxidation rates in Southeast Asian drainage canals

This dataset contains the water properties, microbial respiration rates, and photomineralization rates measured in canal waters sampled across disturbed peatlands in West Kalimantan, Indonesia in 2022.  Microbial respiration and photomineralization rates were determined during laboratory incubations and natural sunlight exposure experiments with canal water samples, respectively.  The optimal laboratory-based rates were then scaled to the canal water column using estimates of dissolved oxygen availability with water depth and photon fluxes reaching the canal water surface.  Each data file contains a "README" tab with a guide for variable units and descriptions.
