Hydroacoustic Data to Support Embayment Monitoring in Long Island Sound, Mystic and Norwalk Embayments, Connecticut, 2023
This data release includes six months of hydroacoustic data collected during the 2023 water year, starting October 1, 2022 and ending April 11, 2023. Data were collected at four stations that are part of a discrete and continuous monitoring project in embayments on Long Island Sound to support nutrient management activities in Connecticut. The data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USG
Data Supporting Phosphorus Load-Reduction Estimates from Leaf-Litter Removal in Central and Northwestern Vermont
Removal of leaf-litter may help municipalities reduce phosphorus loads. Catch-basin cleaning and street cleaning are two commonly used Best Management Practices that could be modified to remove leaves and qualify for additional load-reduction credits. This Data Release contains four tab-delimited .txt files containing additional information about the study area, characteristics of municipal street
Hydraulic Models and Supplementary Data for Selected Stream Crossing Sites in the Squannacook River Basin, North-Central Massachusetts (ver. 1.1, July 2024)
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected field survey data and developed one-dimensional U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Hydrologic Engineering Center’s River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) hydraulic models for selected stream crossing sites in the Squannacook River Basin, north-central Massachusetts. A Geographic Information System (GIS) was developed to derive model input data from Light Dete
Bathymetric and Hydraulic Structure Survey of Still River, Danbury, Connecticut, 2023
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) has collected survey data on the Still River in Danbury, Connecticut. This data release contains high-precision survey data of bathymetric stream channel cross-sections and hydraulic structure data for bridges, culverts, and dams.
Streamflow, water quality, and constituent loads and yields, Scituate Reservoir drainage area, Rhode Island, water year 2020
As part of a long-term cooperative program to monitor water quality within the Scituate Reservoir drainage area, the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with Providence Water (sometimes known as Providence Water Supply Board) collected streamflow and water-quality data in tributaries to the Scituate Reservoir, Rhode Island. Streamflow and concentrations of chloride and sodium estimated from reco

Preparing for today's and tomorrow's water-resources challenges in eastern Long Island, New York
Freshwater is a vital natural resource. Although New York is a water-rich State, the wise and economical use of water resources is needed to ensure that there is enough water of adequate quality for both human and ecological needs—both for today and for tomorrow. Nowhere in New York is this more evident than in Nassau and Suffolk Counties on Long Island, where the public water supply is obtained f

Effects of episodic stream dewatering on brook trout spatial population structure
Stream dewatering is expected to become more prevalent due to climate change, and we explored the potential consequences for brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) within a temperate forest ecosystem in eastern North America.We estimated fish density within stream pools (n = 386) from electrofishing surveys over 10 years (2012–2021) to compare a stream that exhibits episodic dewatering (Paine Run) ag

Long Island Sound Basin Data-Collection Locations
This interactive web application displays U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data-collection locations in the Long Island Sound watershed. Station types include water-quality sampling sites, streamgages, groundwater-level and tidal monitoring sites, and meteorological sites. The sites shown on this map were active data-collection locations from May 2022 to May 2023.
Nitrogen Loading from Selected Long Island Sound Tributaries from 1995 to 2021
This dashboard application displays nitrogen concentrations and loads in selected Long Island Sound tributaries.
