Data

The dataset contains GPS survey data collected at Colorado River at Salt Wash near Moab, UT, as part of a surface velocity mapping effort. The survey was conducted on June 9, 2020, and documents ground control points for a small unmanned aircraft system (sUAS) survey. The survey was performed using Leica GS14 RTK GPS equipment, S/N base-2806898, S/N rover-2806883.

The dataset consists of a shapefile of measurements of surface velocity magnitude and direction at the Colorado River at Salt Wash near Moab, UT, on June 10, 2020. The dataset contains approximately 1.4 km of river length. The surface velocity measurements were made by applying Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) techniques, using overlapping videos collected by small Unmanned...

The dataset contains GPS survey data collected at Colorado River at Salt Wash near Moab, UT, as part of a surface velocity mapping effort. The survey was conducted on October 6, 2020, and documents ground control points for a small unmanned aircraft system (sUAS) survey.

These data include a summary of a base flow survey of the Verde River within Verde Valley, a ~65km reach from ~7 km above Clarkdale, AZ to ~5km below the mouth of West Clear Creek. Data include discharge, water temperature, and specific conductance values from 22 sites on the Verde River and its tributaries, including Oak Creek, Beaver Creek, West Clear Creek, and irrigation ditches...

The dataset consists of a shapefile of measurements of surface velocity magnitude and direction at the Colorado River at Salt Wash near Moab, UT, on October 7, 2020. The dataset contains approximately 3 km of river length. The surface velocity measurements were made by applying Large-Scale Particle Image Velocimetry (LSPIV) techniques, using overlapping videos collected by small Unmanned...

The dataset contains data from two GPS surveys conducted after a flow event on September 8, 2020, at the USGS streamgage 09471580 - San Pedro River at St David, AZ. The first survey, conducted on October 14, 2020, documents CSA cross section geometry, CSA pin elevations, and high-water marks at CSA cross sections from the flow event in the CSA reach downstream from the gage (09471588 -...

These gravity data spreadsheets are Microsoft Excel documents containing functions that convert observed meter readings to gravity using the meter calibration table (for LaCoste & Romberg relative-gravity meters), applies a tide correction, calculates and plots drift using the Roman (1946) method, and calculates average gravity differences between each station pair.

This dataset represents the network-adjusted results of relative- and absolute-gravity surveys. Relative-gravity surveys were carried out using a Zero Length Spring, Inc. Burris relative-gravity meter. The effect of solid Earth tides and ocean loading were removed from the data. Instrument drift was removed by evaluating gravity change during repeated measurements at one or more base...

GSadjust is the first comprehensive, publicly-available graphical interface for performing drift-correction and network adjustment for combined relative- and absolute-gravity surveys (Kennedy and others, 2021). The objective of network adjustment is to determine a single, best-fit gravity value at each station based on all available observations and their respective uncertainty...

This USGS Data Release represents water and sediment quality data collected in the Grand Canyon region of northern Arizona. There are 4 separate datasets associated with this Data Release: Water quality data from major Colorado River tributary monitoring sites in and near Grand Canyon from 2015 through 2022. Sediment quality data from the Colorado River and major tributary monitoring...

This is a terrestrial LiDAR laser scanner dataset of an intermittent waterway named Laguna Creek near the community of Dennehotso, AZ collected on June 2, 2020. The reach scanned for this study is located at the bridge where State Route 160 crosses the waterway. The river channel on the upstream side of the bridge has experienced bank erosion over recent years. A bank stabilization...

The dataset contains GPS survey data of ground control points deployed for aerial LiDAR data collection. The targets were deployed and surveyed on 8/12/2020 and the LiDAR flight was conducted on the morning of 8/13/2020. The control points were surveyed using Leica GS14 RTK GPS equipment, S/N rover-2806883, using the Real Time Network, Leica Smartnet, to determine absolute position.
