Pan-arctic river bank erosion and accretion, and planform metrics measured over intervals ranging from 1973 to 2016

This dataset provides the tabular summary of analysis of 17 reaches of 15 Arctic rivers for river bank erosion and accretion rates, as well as, river channel properties such as channel width, bank curvature, and the aspect/orientation of the river banks. These rivers include the: Chandalar River, Alaska, Colville River, Alaska; Indigirka River, Russia; Kolyma River, Russia; Koyukuk River, Alaska; Lena River, Alaska; Noatak River, Alaska; Ob River, Russia; Pechora River, Russia; Tanana River, Alaska, Selawik River, Alaska; Taz River, Russia; Yana River, Russia; Yenisei River, Russia; and the Yukon River, Alaska. The dataset was generated from a total of 129 images including: Landsat, higher resolution satellite imagery, and aerial photography over time periods ranging from the 1970s and 2016. A full list of the image dates, row and path (for Landsat), and pixel resolutions is provided in the dataset. Masks for the Chandalar River, Tanana River, and Yukon at Holy Cross were obtained from Brown et al. (2020). The masks were analyzed using the Spatially Continuous Riverbank Erosion and Accretion Measurements (SCREAM) software detailed in Rowland et al. 2016. The masks used in this analysis can be found an accompanying dataset (doi:10.15485/1571527).In files with “summary” in the name, the data is provided at a pixel level, where each mapped bank pixel has an associated erosion or accretion value, a channel width, a curvature value, and an aspect each river and time period will have an individual file. Files with “Segments” in name provide data that is averaged along segments of the rivers. These data are consolidated into a single file each for the erosion and accretion measurements. These segments are approximately 10 channel widths in length. In addition to erosion and accretion rates, the segment-based results include area measurements of erosion and accretion, islands, and channels. Revisions 2023:-Data added for the Koyukuk River for time periods of 1978-2012, 1978-2018, and 2012-2018. ---Data added from the Chandalar River, Tanana River, and Yukon River at Holy Cross based on masks obtained from Brown et al. (2020).-Updated the values for Drainage area and river slope, see methods below-Added values for meant topographic slope for upstream contributing area, long term averaged annual maximum monthly flow, average annual maximum monthly flow for the time period of erosion record, and added the river slope extracted from the Lin et al. (2020) data product.-Add field for River Planform Multi threaded (M) or Single threaded-Added ‘ConsolidatedErosionSegments.csv’ which provides the same data as AllRiversErosionSegments.csv rebinned with averages along river segments based on upstream drainage area instead of channel segments based on lengths set to approximately 10 channel widths.
