The concentration and fractional abundance of branched Glycerol Dialkyl Glycerol Tetraethers (brGDGTs), including 5-methyl and 6-methyl isomers, were investigated in the soils, suspended particulate matter (SPM) and riverbed sediments of the Godavari River basin, the largest non-Himalayan river in India and fed by the Southwest monsoon. Surface soils (0-10 cm) were collected near the Godavari River, and SPM and riverbed sediments were collected in a dry (February/March) and wet season (July/August) in 2015. Crenarchaeol was measured, as well as pH, TOC, and soil and sediment geochemistry. ** For all details see the full metadata description at "https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.934712"!
