This archive contains data from an experiment assessing the short term (12 days) degradation of dissolved organic matter (DOM) collected from four tundra ponds sampled early July on Bylot Island, Nunavut, Canada. Four treatments were applied in situ: 1- Control (C) obtained by filtering water onto 0.2 µm filters incubated in the dark; 2- Sunlight (S) obtained using the same filtered water but incubated under natural sunlight conditions; 3- Bacteria (B) obtained on unfiltered water incubated in the dark; 4- Sunlight and Bacteria (SB) obtained on unfiltered water incubated under natural light conditions. DOM was characterized by absorption scans, matrices of fluorescence (with PARAFAC extraction), and DOC quantification. Bacterial abundance was also followed.
