Description :
The sources and fluxes of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) were investigated within a subarctic catchment with discontinuous permafrost (Granger Basin, Yukon) from 23 June 2001 to 22 June 2002. The A. studies the mechanism whereby DOC is flushed to the stream during spring freshet and summer rainfall events, evaluates what roles permafrost and frozen ground play in DOC flushing, and provides a first-order estimate of annual DOC export.
