Water isotope values in shore samples collected in March and July 2020 from northeastern German lake 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 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.
