This dataset provides sample data and NCBI accession information for genomic sequencing of Gray-headed Chickadee and Boreal Chickadee from North America and Russia.

Genotype Data for Population Genetic Study of Emperor Geese (Anser canagicus) in Alaska Genotype Data for Population Genetic Study of Emperor Geese (Anser canagicus) in Alaska

This data release includes genotype data for 210 Emperor Geese collected on their breeding grounds in Alaska, specifically the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta and the Seward Peninsula, from 2007-2022. The samples were sequenced with restriction site-associated sequencing (RAD-seq), and genotyped at 44,648 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

Walrus Counts Apparent from Aerial Survey Images Collected Near Point Lay, Alaska Walrus Counts Apparent from Aerial Survey Images Collected Near Point Lay, Alaska

This dataset provides walrus counts in 10 m by 10 m square grid cells randomly selected from a standard set of grid cells established for the study area and that intersected with previously published walrus herd outlines and overlain on aerial survey imagery. Results are provided as geospatial polygons saved in the shapefile format. These data are based on visual interpretation of...

Data for Assessing the Utility of eDNA Approaches for Determining the Impacts of Metal Mobilization from Thawing Permafrost on Fish Communities in Arctic Streams Data for Assessing the Utility of eDNA Approaches for Determining the Impacts of Metal Mobilization from Thawing Permafrost on Fish Communities in Arctic Streams

This data set describes results for laboratory experiments to determine the efficacy of environmental DNA quantitative PCR assays for four fish species when applied to filtered water samples containing metals mobilized from thawing permafrost.

Macoma Clam Prey Identified by DNA Metabarcoding, 2018 and 2019, Alaska Macoma Clam Prey Identified by DNA Metabarcoding, 2018 and 2019, Alaska

This dataset describes sequence data derived from 18S ribosomal and ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcL) DNA. Stomach contents from 190 Macoma calcarea clams were examined for this study. Clams were collected from the Bering Sea and Chukchi Sea, Alaska in 2018 and 2019 using benthic van Veen grabs.

Data Associated with Beak Deformities in Red-tailed Hawks (Buteo jamaicensis), 1992-2024 Data Associated with Beak Deformities in Red-tailed Hawks (Buteo jamaicensis), 1992-2024

This dataset consists of three tables with data associated with Red-tailed Hawks exhibiting beak deformities characteristic of avian keratin disorder (AKD). The first is comprised of Red-tailed Hawks collected or captured in the Northwest region of the United States. The second is a compilation of reports from citizen science observers or scientific literature. The third is a poecivirus...

Genetic Data for Evaluating Morphology Use to Identify Hunter-Harvested Geese Genetic Data for Evaluating Morphology Use to Identify Hunter-Harvested Geese

This data release contains one table of genetic data (mitochondrial haplotypes and nuclear microsatellite genotypes) used to evaluate utility of two morphological measures (culmen length and plumage color) to correctly identify groups of hunter-harvested dusky (Branta canadensis occidentalis) and dusky-like Canada geese on wintering grounds within the Pacific Flyway of North America...

Data from Migratory Bird Aerial Surveys and Habitat, Nest Success, and Genetic Samples from Spectacled Eiders (Somateria fischeri) on the Indigirka River Delta, Russia Data from Migratory Bird Aerial Surveys and Habitat, Nest Success, and Genetic Samples from Spectacled Eiders (Somateria fischeri) on the Indigirka River Delta, Russia

This data release contains five spreadsheets of information from aerial surveys of the Indigirka River Delta, Russia, in June of 1993 and 1994, data on habitats where nests of Spectacled Eiders (Somateria fischeri) and other species of waterfowl were observed from 1993 to 1995, and genotypic data from feathers collected from eider nests to determine inter-annual rates of return by...

U-Pb Isotopic Data and Dates of Zircon from the Western Upper Peninsula of Michigan and Northern Wisconsin, United States U-Pb Isotopic Data and Dates of Zircon from the Western Upper Peninsula of Michigan and Northern Wisconsin, United States

This dataset contains U-Pb isotopic data and associated dates of zircon from sedimentary and metamorphic rocks collected from the western Upper Peninsula of Michigan and northern Wisconsin, United States. The samples were collected as part of geological mapping and research conducted from 2019 to 2023 and funded by the Mineral Resources Program of the U.S. Geological Survey. Zircon...

Data for Characterization of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Surface Waters in Two National Parks in Alaska Data for Characterization of Antimicrobial Resistance Genes in Surface Waters in Two National Parks in Alaska

This data set describes the assessment of surface waters in Denali National Park and Preserve and Wrangell St. Elias National Park and Preserve for antimicrobial resistance genes during four summer months (May - August).

Data Release for the Geologic Map of the Greater Antilles and Virgin Islands Data Release for the Geologic Map of the Greater Antilles and Virgin Islands

Geologic map geodatabase depicting the geology of the Greater Antilles and Virgin Islands region, including countries of Cuba, Haiti, Dominican Republic, and Jamaica, and territories of Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the British Virgin Islands, and the Cayman Islands. Database tables include: geologic linework, dikes, folds, geologic units, and geochronologic data.

Movement Metrics of Adult Female Grizzly Bears and Polar Bears Used to Identify Cub Presence with Machine Learning Movement Metrics of Adult Female Grizzly Bears and Polar Bears Used to Identify Cub Presence with Machine Learning

These data represent movement metrics of adult female grizzly bears and polar bears with and without cubs-of-the-year at seven temporal scales after den departure. Grizzly bear data were collected in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem during 2000–2021 and in the Northern Continental Divide Ecosystem during 2003–2022. Polar bear data were collected in the Southern Beaufort Sea during 1986...
