Abstract:
This file includes columns for dry and wet weight of sediments as well as calculated moisture content in percent. Moisture content was calculated by subtracting the dry weight from the wet weight, dividing by the dry weight and multiplying by 100. Sample dry weight was collected after oven drying at 60 degrees Celsius for 48 hours.
