Data

This dataset contains information from surveys conducted 2016-2024 by USGS as part of an ongoing Oregon spotted frog (Rana pretiosa) monitoring effort in Oregon. USGS research activities 2016-2024 were divided into seven study design categories: breeding (egg mass counts), mid-level (visual encounter surveys for occupancy monitoring), apex (mark-recapture), telemetry, trapping, water...

We investigated habitat selection by 28 male greater sage-grouse during each of three years (2016-2018) after a 113,000-ha wildfire in a sagebrush steppe ecosystem in Idaho and Oregon. During the study period, seeding and herbicide treatments were applied for habitat restoration. This dataset includes pre-fire land cover, post-fire vegetation, and post-fire treatment data within 500-m...

This database contains literature citations and associated summaries pertaining to livestock grazing effects on amphibians and their habitats, with an emphasis on the Oregon spotted frog (Rana pretiosa) and other listed/sensitive wetland-breeding amphibians in the western United States. This is not meant to be an exhaustive list, nor did we perform a systematic meta-analysis; rather...

First, we would like to thank the wildland fire advisory group. Their wisdom and guidance helped us build the dataset as it currently exists. This dataset is comprised of two different zip files. Zip File 1: The data within this zip file are composed of two wildland fire datasets. (1) A merged dataset consisting of 40 different wildfire and prescribed fire layers. The original 40 layers...

Comma-separated values (.csv) file containing data (and derived data) from GPS tracking of free-flying bald eagles (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), Iowa, USA. NOTE: Data file does not load properly in Microsoft Excel due to the size of data file (2,093,022 rows x 15 columns) that far exceeds Excel's maximum of 1,048,576 rows. Use other program(s) like R or Notepad to view the file.

This dataset includes stream temperature data from 34 sites in the Donner und Blitzen basin of SE Oregon. Data loggers were deployed in September of 2018 and downloaded each subsequent summer/fall through 2021. The EcoDrought_Temperature file contains temperature data (in degrees Celsius) by logger serial number and site for the study period. The EcoDrought_Points spatial data layer...

This dataset includes hourly stream and air temperature data from 124 sites throughout the Northern Great Basin region of SE Oregon. Data loggers were deployed June through September of 2016 and downloaded each subsequent summer through 2021. The SE_OR_Stream_Temps and SE_OR_Air_Temps files contain temperature data (in degrees Celsius) by logger serial number and site for the study...

Estimating the number of birds or bats killed at a wind power facility involves adjusting observed carcass counts to account for imperfect detection. To account for carcasses that lie outside the searched area, the count is adjusted by dividing by the estimated proportion of carcasses lying within the searched area or the density-weighted proportion (dwp). The dwp package provides tools...

Comma-separated values (.csv) file containing data related to mercury in fishes collected from Clear Lake, California. These data are superseded by Pierce, J.R., Feyrer, F.V., Young, M.J., Enos, E.R., Clause, J.K., Alpers, C.N., and Eagles-Smith, C.A., 2022, Mercury in biota from Clear Lake, California (ver. 3.0, August 2024): U.S. Geological Survey data release, https://doi.org/10.5066...

IMPORTANT NOTE: This dataset includes spatial locations where streamflow permanence observations (continuous flow, discontinuous flow, and dry) were recorded using the FLOwPER (FLOw PERmanence) field survey available in the Survey 123 and S1 mobile application. Additional information to describe the field conditions are included as part of the survey. Field observations in the FLOwPER...

The data set includes point location data and survival status of 90 fishers that were translocated from central British Columbia, Canada, to Olympic National Park, Washington, 2008-2010.
