Data

These data contain results and model code from the North American Bat Monitoring Program's (NABat) integrated species distribution and trend models for the hoary bat (Lasiurus cinereus) and silver-haired bat (Lasionycteris noctivagans). These results document population status and trends based on the first continental-scale, comprehensive analysis of NABat data for tree bats (2012–2023)

This data release provides data from the 2016 Lesmeister et al. technical report and Mathematica and Python analytical code to model co-occurrence effects between barred (Strix varia) and northern spotted (Strix occidentalis caurina) owls. This data release, containing sample data set and code, is designed to facilitate reproducibility of analyses associated with the manuscript titled...

This dataset provides a predictive ecological state map for the Southwest Sandy and Loamy Uplands Ecological Site Group (ESG). We developed a machine learning approach to predict ecological states by training vegetation cover data from three remotely sensed datasets—Rangeland Analysis Platform (RAP), Rangeland Condition Monitoring Assessment and Projection (RCMAP), and Landscape Cover...

These data include a collection of 3-dimensional (3D) point clouds from three New Mexico landscapes and associated field-collected validation data accompanying each scan. The data were collected in fall of 2022-2023 across three montane New Mexico landscapes - similar in climate but differing in disturbance histories. Landscapes include a intensely and repeatedly burned shrubfield, a...

We developed and report a microsatellite data set composed of 52 microsatellite loci for 2305 individuals from 20 bison conservation herds (17 US federal, 1 tribal, 2 Canadian) and a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data set composed of 5013 biallic loci for 376 individuals from 16 bison conservation herds that were used as part of a broader study. We also developed an algorithm to...

This study generated genetic polymorphism data at a genome scale by whole-genome shotgun DNA sequencing of Mariana Crow (Corvus Kubaryi). DNA was extracted from blood tissue originally collected nonlethally from field monitoring efforts, captive rearing, and carcasses, under permit of the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Sequencing libraries were generated for the Illumina sequencing...

The U.S. Geological Survey gathered historic aerial photography and remote sensing imagery from a variety of sources for mapping channel change along a 22.5-kilometer reach of the Green River at Gray Canyon near Green River, Utah. Imagery was downloaded in .TIF format and Structure-from-Motion (SfM) photogrammetry techniques were applied (Over et al. 2021) using Agisoft Metashape...

This data release is comprised of two datasets; 1) a .tif file containing species distribution model (SDM) outputs for three invasive tegu species (Salvator merianae, S. rufescens, Tupinambis teguixin) across the contiguous United States (CONUS) for three climate scenarios (current, +2 degree C warming and +4 degree C warming). We are providing a stacked raster (9 layers total), with a...

The data set consists of three files pertaining to invasive Brown Treesnakes (Boiga irregularis) and temporally-associated weather covariates on Guam: 1) snout-vent length (SVL) and sex of brown treesnakes (bts_growth.csv), 2) precipitation (bts_rain.csv), and 3) seasonality (bts_season.csv). Snout-vent lengths in millimeters (mm) and sex of 270 individually marked and recaptured brown...

Morphometric data (mass, length, circumference, age) collected during an observation of a radio-telemetered female Burmese python (Python bivitattus) that ingested an adult female white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), retained the deer within the digestive tract for 10 days, and then vomited the deer coinciding with a drop in air temperature.

This dataset includes three datasets collected in 2021 and 2022 to assess the potential effects of bison (Bison bison) herbivory and climate on grassland functional properties throughout semi-arid meadows in Grand Canyon National Park and Kaibab National Forest of northern Arizona. Bison herbivory offtake (utilization) and aboveground herbaceous production are demonstrated in the...

This dataset includes locations of burros between 2016 and 2020 from two study areas where burros were located every 2 hours continuously using GPS telemetry collars for Lotek collars, and every 13 hours continuously for Vectronic Aerospace collars. Location data are from adult female burros, not males. Study areas are the Lake Pleasant Herd Management Area in Arizona, USA and the Sinbad...
