Estimates of Iron Mineralization in Select Reaches of Three Alaska Arctic Rivers Derived from Historical Landsat Imagery

These data are in three tables each reporting estimated iron mineralization within stream reaches from three arctic rivers in northwestern Alaska on select days between July-August, 1985-2022. The relative magnitude of iron mineralization was measured using a remotely sensed iron index calculated from available Level 2, Collection 2, Tier 1 Landsat Surface Reflectance products derived by the USGS and accessed within Google Earth Engine (https://earthengine.google.com).
