  • The coastal tundra adjacent to Simpson Lagoon, along Alaska's Beaufort Sea coast, was visited in July and October 2022 to assess coastal groundwater dynamics along the lagoon. Groundwater levels were monitored in five piezometers aligned in a transect oriented perpendicular to Simpson Lagoon, as well as surface water levels in the lagoon. Loggers were deployed on July 22, 2022, and collected on October 1, 2022. Data include surface water and groundwater elevation data from July 22, 2022, to September 29, 2022, with the elevation relative to a local datum. All levels have been corrected for barometric pressure (see methods). Also included is groundwater temperature data from the well closest to the lagoon (Well 5).
