This data release contains principal facts of gravity measurements collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2013-2022, a compilation of existing and new density and magnetic susceptibility data, horizontal gradient maxima derived from gravity and magnetic potential fields, and depth of Cenozoic basin fill in the Hayfork basin from inversion of gravity data of the southern Klamath...
Gravity Data in the eastern Mojave Desert, California and Nevada Gravity Data in the eastern Mojave Desert, California and Nevada
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected gravity data in the eastern Mojave Desert, California and Nevada as an aid to characterizing the regional geologic framework. Gravity stations were located between approximately lat 35°10’ and 35°50’ N. and long 115°05’ and 115°50’ W. and were distributed from west to east across parts of Shadow Valley, Clark Mountain Range, Mescal Range...
Stillwater Complex, Montana—logs of core drilled by Stillwater Mining Company and Anaconda Copper Corp. in the Stillwater Mine area, 1983 to 1989 Stillwater Complex, Montana—logs of core drilled by Stillwater Mining Company and Anaconda Copper Corp. in the Stillwater Mine area, 1983 to 1989
This dataset includes TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) images of graphic drill core logs showing associated drill core information, a TIFF image of the explanation for the lithology and structure sections of the logs, an Esri shapefile of the locations of the drill holes, and 12 .csv files of tabular data that were compiled from handwritten drill core logs. The drill core is from the...
Modified basal contact of the Tertiary Lares Limestone in the vicinity of Utuado, Puerto Rico, USA, derived from USGS Open-File Report 98-038 Modified basal contact of the Tertiary Lares Limestone in the vicinity of Utuado, Puerto Rico, USA, derived from USGS Open-File Report 98-038
This dataset comprises a vector shapefile of the Puerto Rico geologic map from Bawiec et al. (1999), clipped to study areas in the Lares, Utuado, and Naranjito municipalities, with a modified basal contact of the Tertiary Lares Limestone (Tla) re-mapped using a lidar-derived digital elevation model (DEM) (USGS, 2018). The limestone unit of interest forms a prominent break in slope with...

This Geologic Map Schema (GeMS) database contains all the geologic map information used to publish the Preliminary Surficial Geologic Map of Leuhman Ridge and the Surrounding Area, Edwards Air Force Base and Air Force Research Laboratory, Kern and San Bernardino Counties, California, U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2023-1014. This digital map database represents the general...
Regional geophysical maps of the Great Basin, USA Regional geophysical maps of the Great Basin, USA
Regional geophysical maps of the Great Basin, USA were generated from new and existing sources to support ongoing efforts to characterize geothermal resource potential in the western US. These include: (1) a provisional regional gravity grid that was produced from data compiled from multiple sources: data collected by the USGS and Utah Geological Survey under various projects, industry...
Tabular geochronologic and geochemical data from metasedimentary and associated rocks in the Lane Mountain area, San Bernardino County, California Tabular geochronologic and geochemical data from metasedimentary and associated rocks in the Lane Mountain area, San Bernardino County, California
This dataset provides geochronologic and geochemical data for selected metasedimentary and associated rock samples collected in the Lane Mountain area about 20 kilometers northwest of Barstow, California. Geochronologic data were obtained for 24 samples, and geochemical data were obtained for 5 of these. The dataset consists of four tables in csv (comma separated values) format: (1)...
Data release for Ice and ocean constraints on early human migrations into North America along the Pacific coast Data release for Ice and ocean constraints on early human migrations into North America along the Pacific coast
Founding populations of the first Americans likely occupied parts of Beringia during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) (1). The timing, pathways, and modes of their southward transit remain unknown, but blockage of the interior route by North American ice sheets between ~26-14 cal kyr BP (ka) favors a coastal route during this period. Using models and paleoceanographic data from the North...
Geothermal resource favorability: select features and predictions for the western United States curated for DOI 10.1016/j.geothermics.2023.102662 Geothermal resource favorability: select features and predictions for the western United States curated for DOI 10.1016/j.geothermics.2023.102662
The data contained herein are five input features (i.e., heat flow, distance to the nearest quaternary fault, distance to the nearest quaternary magma body, seismic event density, maximum horizontal stress) and labels (i.e., where known geothermal systems have been identified) from Williams and DeAngelo (2008) and nine favorability maps from Mordensky et al. (2023). The favorability maps...
Aeromagnetic Data and horizontal gradient maxima of Blythe, California, and Surrounding Areas in California and Arizona Aeromagnetic Data and horizontal gradient maxima of Blythe, California, and Surrounding Areas in California and Arizona
This data release provides access to an aeromagnetic survey and magnetization boundaries over Blythe, California and surrounding areas in southern California and western Arizona. The survey extends east of Joshua Tree National Park across the Colorado River and west over the Dome Rock, Trigo, and Plomosa Mountains in Arizona. The survey was flown north of the Chocolate Mountains Gunnery...
Dataset Establishing Temporal Duration of Two Shield Volcanoes in Northern California Dataset Establishing Temporal Duration of Two Shield Volcanoes in Northern California
This dataset contains paleomagnetic data from 30 sites at two locations in northern California (16 sites at Ash Creek Butte and 14 sites at Crater Mountain), magnetic susceptibility-temperature curves for selected samples at Ash Creek Butte, and geochemical data for map units at Crater Mountain.
gravmagsubs: Gravitational and magnetic attraction of 3-D vertical rectangular prisms gravmagsubs: Gravitational and magnetic attraction of 3-D vertical rectangular prisms
gravmagsubs is a software package for the R language that provides tools for forward modeling gravity and magnetic anomalies from 3-D right rectangular prisms. The gravity anomaly is defined as the vertical component of gravitational acceleration, while the magnetic anomaly includes the effects of both induced and remanent magnetization. The package can model the total anomaly from a...
