The data consists of two files:
- GBS.txt contains the sediment data of the reservoir Großer Brombachsee
- SBT.txt contains the sediment data of the reservoir Schwarzenbachtalsperre
Both files contain information on the sediment depth and erosion stability separated into τc,0 and τc,S.
Furthermore, both files contain a collection of physico-chemical sediment parameters, including bulk density, sediment composition (Clay, Silt, Sand), percentiles (d10, d50, d90),cation exchange capacity (CEC), and organic content (TOC).
Additionally, the SBT data contains biological sediment parameters, including chlorophyll-a (CHL-a), and extracellular polymeric substances separated into proteins (EPS-p) and carbohydrates (EPS-c).

The data was collected within the transdisciplinary research project "CHARM - Challenges of Reservoir Management".
