Many regions of Arctic tundra are characterized by ice wedge polygons, created by the repeated freezing and thawing of the ground surface. Troughs form between polygons, ranging from half a meter to three or more meters across. These troughs create networks of microtopographic drainages, called capillaries here, with varying degrees of complexity and connectivity, as water pools or runs off across the landscape. This lateral export of water and associated carbon remains poorly understood, particularly in the context of changes to permafrost degradation and stabilization. We sampled dissolved organic matter and dissolved nitrogen concentrations in the outlets of capillary trough systems near the Jago River in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, on the North Slope of Alaska in July and August of 2024 and 2025. Several capillaries also had associated hydrological data. Additionally, we traced connected capillaries upstream of outlets, sampling at intervals to determine relationships between water chemistry and landscape position within a network. Low flow conditions during the field season in 2025 led to substantial changes in nutrients and carbon in repeatedly sampled capillaries. We also found variation between capillary systems that may be linked to the size and length of the drainage system. Overall, this work fits into a larger effort to characterize how the connectivity of the landscape impacts the export of carbon and water to larger river systems in permafrost polygon regions.
