Data

Two digital video cameras were installed at Sand Key, Florida (FL), facing south (camera 1) and north (camera 2) along the beach. Every hour during daylight hours, daily from 2018 to 2022, the cameras collected raw video and produced snapshots and time-averaged image products. For camera 2, one such product that is created is a "runup timestack". Runup timestacks are images created by...

A digital video camera was installed at Madeira Beach, Florida (FL) and faced west along the beach. Every hour during daylight hours, daily from 2017 to 2022, the camera collected raw video and produced snapshots and time-averaged image products. One such product is a "runup timestack". Runup timestacks are images created by sampling a cross-shore array of pixels from an image through...

Two digital video cameras were installed at Sand Key, Florida (FL), facing south (camera 1) and north (camera 2) along the beach. Every hour during daylight hours, daily from 2018 to 2022, the cameras collected raw video and produced snapshots and time-averaged image products. This data release includes the necessary intrinsic orientation (IO) and extrinsic orientation (EO) calibration...

Underwater images were collected using a towed-surface vehicle with multiple downward-looking underwater cameras developed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). The system is named the Structure-from-Motion (SfM) Quantitative Underwater Imaging Device with Five Cameras (SQUID-5). The raw images and associated navigation data were collected at Big Pine Ledge, a coral reef located within...

Scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center in St. Petersburg, Florida (USGS – SPCSMC), conducted a nearshore geophysical survey offshore of Seven Mile Island, New Jersey, during May 2023. Multibeam bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data were collected aboard the research vessel (R/V) Sallenger. The survey was supported by the National...

Scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS – SPCSMC), conducted a nearshore geophysical survey offshore of the Rockaway Peninsula, New York (NY), during May 2023. Multibeam bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data were collected aboard the research vessel (R/V) Sallenger. The survey was supported by the National Fish and Wildlife...

This data release defines beach volumes and shoreline change for each 10-meter-wide profile along the New Jersey and New York coastline. The profiles are derived from light detection and ranging (lidar)-digital elevation models (DEMs). These data support the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF)-funded project entitled “Monitoring Hurricane Sandy Beach and Marsh Resilience in New...

The information in this data release are those referenced in the journal article by Evans and others (2024) entitled “Evaluation of in vitro treatments against the causative agent of Diadema antillarum scuticociliatosis (DaSc).” They contain the results observed and collected during an experiment that tested the efficacy of nine compounds (2’4’ dihydroxychalcone, bithionol sulfoxide...

In February 2017, the United States Geological Survey Saint Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS SPCMSC) conducted multibeam and single-beam bathymetric surveys of the nearshore waters off the coast of Madeira Beach, Florida. These data were collected as part of a regional study designed to better understand coastal processes on barrier islands and sandy beaches. Results...

In 2021, scientists from the USGS St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) conducted ground penetrating radar (GPR) and sediment sampling surveys on barrier islands located along the central Florida (FL) Gulf Coast (CFGC), Pinellas County, FL. This study investigated the past evolution of the CFGC from field sites at Anclote Key, Caladesi and Honeymoon Islands, and Fort...

Scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center in St. Petersburg, Florida (USGS – SPCSMC), conducted a geophysical and imagery survey around Fort Hase Marine Corps Base Hawaii (MCBH) and Coconut Island, on the island of Oahu, Hawaii (HI), during May 2023. During this study, multibeam bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data were collected...
