Fish Community Data from Natural Channel Sections of the Mohawk River, NY Fish Community Data from Natural Channel Sections of the Mohawk River, NY

The dataset is composed of two data tables containing information from boat electrofishing surveys conducted during 2021, 2023, and 2024 in sections of the Mohawk River where it runs separately from the New York State Canal System (i.e., is not canalized). The first table contains fish collection data and the second table contains information on the sampled reaches.

Geophysical Data for Assessment of Karst Drainage Features in Genesee County, New York Geophysical Data for Assessment of Karst Drainage Features in Genesee County, New York

In September and November 2023, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, collected geophysical surveys of 5 karst drainage features (sinkholes) in eastern Genesee County, New York, in order to study the nature of the subsurface fill material, bedrock topography, and karst dissolution features. Sites were surveyed using...
