Surface Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Time-Domain Electromagnetic data in the Camas Prairie near Fairfield, south-central Idaho Surface Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Time-Domain Electromagnetic data in the Camas Prairie near Fairfield, south-central Idaho
In cooperation with the Idaho Department of Water Resources (IDWR), the U.S. Geological Survey, (USGS), collected surface nuclear magnetic resonance (sNMR) and time-domain electromagnetic (TDEM) surveys at eight sites located in the Camas Prairie, Idaho between July 30 and August 2, 2024. The data were acquired to characterize the subsurface and define hydraulic properties of the shallow

This data release contains the TVSWA_Delineator tool, and the associated groundwater-flow and particle-tracking model files used to define source water assessment areas for public water supply wells in the Treasure Valley. It includes a Python-based executable utilizing the FloPy package, specialized MODPATH 7 particle-tracking configurations, and a modified version of the MODFLOW 6...
Mercury concentrations in fish and macroinvertebrates from the Duck Valley Reservation and nearby waters, southwestern Idaho and northern Nevada, 2007–2024 Mercury concentrations in fish and macroinvertebrates from the Duck Valley Reservation and nearby waters, southwestern Idaho and northern Nevada, 2007–2024
This data release contains mercury concentration measurements in fish and benthic macroinvertebrates collected from southwestern Idaho and northern Nevada between 2007 and 2024. The dataset primarily includes total mercury (Hg) concentrations in muscle tissue of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)—sampled from three reservoirs on the Duck Valley Reservation (Mountain View Reservoir, Lake...
Ground-Penetrating Radar Surveys of Subsurface Features in the Snake River near Boise, Idaho Ground-Penetrating Radar Surveys of Subsurface Features in the Snake River near Boise, Idaho
In September 2025, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with Idaho Power Company, conducted a pilot geophysical survey along the Snake River between the Boise River confluence and Swan Falls Dam in southwestern Idaho. The purpose of the survey was to evaluate the utility of ground-penetrating radar (GPR) for mapping the spatial distribution and thickness of gravel deposits within...
Supporting data for 2022-2023 groundwater budget for the Mountain Home area, southern Idaho Supporting data for 2022-2023 groundwater budget for the Mountain Home area, southern Idaho
In the arid Mountain Home region, groundwater serves as the primary water source for agriculture, municipalities, industry, and other users, making its long-term availability a growing concern amid observed declines in aquifer levels . The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Idaho Department of Water Resources, developed a water budget for the 2023 irrigation year (November...
Model archive for suspended sediment regression models in rloadest to estimate suspended sediment concentration and loads for the Snake River at Weiser, Idaho, 1977-2022 Model archive for suspended sediment regression models in rloadest to estimate suspended sediment concentration and loads for the Snake River at Weiser, Idaho, 1977-2022
Regression models for estimating suspended sediment concentration (SSC) and loads were developed using the R package rloadest for U.S. Geological Survey streamgage Snake River at Weiser, Idaho (13269000). Samples for suspended sediment concentration were collected in two periods: the historical (1977-2003) and modern (2017-22) periods. Data and metadata for all samples collected at this...
Streamflow regressions, daily mean streamflow estimates, and annual and monthly streamflow statistics for Clearwater River tributaries in Central Idaho Streamflow regressions, daily mean streamflow estimates, and annual and monthly streamflow statistics for Clearwater River tributaries in Central Idaho
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Nez Perce Tribe, used streamflow measurements at 12 ungaged, partial-record sites and developed relationships with nearby USGS real-time streamgages (index sites) to provide daily mean streamflow values at partial-record sites in the Clearwater River basin. Daily mean streamflow was estimated by developing a regression...

Aquatic reflectance data from Sentinel-2 satellite imagery is paired with continuous water quality measurements across the Delaware, Illinois, Trinity, Upper Colorado, and Willamette River basins in the United States from July 2015 through September 2024. The dataset contains a zipped file (Matched_WQ_S2.zip) containing two csvs of matched continuous colored dissolved organic matter...
Drilling, construction, geophysical data, and lithologic log for borehole USGS 150 Drilling, construction, geophysical data, and lithologic log for borehole USGS 150
In 2019, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Research Drilling Program, based in Nevada, subcontracted with WOOD PLC to drill and construct borehole USGS 150 (USGS site 433521112581801). The borehole was continuously cored from approximately 18.3 to 1399 feet below land surface, with the primary objective of gathering geological, geophysical, and seismic data to enhance models for...
