Composite Raster and Divergence Tool Composite Raster and Divergence Tool
ArcGIS ArcMap add-in, when using this tool, a user can: 1) create a date prioritized composite raster from a collection of raster layers 2) create a lookup raster for the composite raster that identifies which input layers were used to create the composite raster 3) create a divergence raster where pixel values represent the divergence from a user specified value
CEQUALW2 water-quality model and supporting LOADEST models for Lake St. Croix, Wisconsin and Minnesota, 2013 CEQUALW2 water-quality model and supporting LOADEST models for Lake St. Croix, Wisconsin and Minnesota, 2013
A mechanistic, biophysical water-quality model (CEQUALW2) was developed and calibrated for Lake St. Croix, Wisconsin and Minnesota. The Lake St. Croix CEQUALW2 model was simulated and calibrated using data collected from April through November 2013. Loads developed for the model were based on water-quality data collected by various agencies, including the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)...
Soil-Water-Balance model data sets for the St. Louis River drainage basin, northeast Minnesota, 1995-2010 Soil-Water-Balance model data sets for the St. Louis River drainage basin, northeast Minnesota, 1995-2010
A soil-water balance model (SWB) was developed to estimate potential recharge and surface runoff for portions of the St. Louis River drainage basin, northeast Minnesota, for the period 1995 through 2010. The model was used in the creation of St. Louis River streamflow distribution maps, as part of the associated report, U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 2017-3390 (http...
Soil-Water-Balance model data sets for the Cannon River drainage basin, southeast Minnesota, 1995-2010 Soil-Water-Balance model data sets for the Cannon River drainage basin, southeast Minnesota, 1995-2010
A soil-water balance model (SWB) was developed to estimate potential recharge and surface runoff for portions of the Cannon River drainage basin, southeast Minnesota, for the period 1995 through 2010. The model was used in the creation of Cannon River streamflow distribution maps, as part of the associated report, U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 2017-3390 (http://dx...
Groundwater Seepage Measurements in Northeast Section of Bear Lake, Muskegon County, Michigan, October 2015 Groundwater Seepage Measurements in Northeast Section of Bear Lake, Muskegon County, Michigan, October 2015
Five discrete groundwater seepage measurements were collected to make a direct measurement of the flux of water across the sediment-water interface. Change in volume/time is the volumetric rate of flow. The volumetric rate of flow was used to calculate flux velocity (distance/time), by dividing the specific area of the seepage meter (2.70-square-feet). The change in volume over the time...
Restoration versus invasive species: bigheaded carps use of a rehabilitated backwater: Data Restoration versus invasive species: bigheaded carps use of a rehabilitated backwater: Data
To evaluate how bigheaded carps use a restored backwater habitat, their passages into and out of and residency within a backwater was monitored using acoustic telemetry. This dataset describes the results of this study and was used to compare activity of bigheaded carps between species, at a diel scale, among seasons, and how activity related of environmental conditions. Calculation of...
Arsenic and Iron data for mass balance calculations to investigate arsenic cycling in a petroleum plume Arsenic and Iron data for mass balance calculations to investigate arsenic cycling in a petroleum plume
Natural attenuation of organic contaminants in groundwater can give rise to a series of complex biogeochemical reactions that release secondary contaminants to groundwater. In a crude oil contaminated aquifer, biodegradation of petroleum hydrocarbons is coupled with the reduction of ferric iron (Fe(III)) hydroxides in aquifer sediments. As a result, naturally occurring arsenic (As)...
Soil-Water Balance model datasets used to estimate groundwater recharge to the I-94 growth corridor surficial aquifer, Minnesota, 2010-2014 Soil-Water Balance model datasets used to estimate groundwater recharge to the I-94 growth corridor surficial aquifer, Minnesota, 2010-2014
A soil-water balance model (SWB) was developed to estimate potential recharge to the Interstate 94 Corridor surficial aquifer, located in central Minnesota, for the period 2010 through 2014. The model was not calibrated; however, various water budget components from the model output compared reasonably well with other estimates. Furthermore, the model was based upon the statewide...

2003 Blood Corticosterone Common Loons: Data 2003 Blood Corticosterone Common Loons: Data
To help determine whether Hg had a causal effect on corticosterone, we investigated the impact of experimental Hg intake on the corticosterone stress response in captive juvenile loons. Juveniles were subjected to three different feeding regimes: 0, 0.4 and 1.2 µg Hg (as MeHgCL)/g wet weight (ww) fish. We then measured baseline and 30 min post-solitary confinement stressor corticosterone
carpIPM R code carpIPM R code
Fish grow continuously. Integral projection models (IPM) model size continuously. We developed an IPM for fish. We specifically developed the model for grass carp, however, the model could also be applied to species with similar life-histories such as other carp species. We included YY-males within the model because releasing YY-males has been proposed a control method for the species...
Human-associated indicator bacteria and human specific virus loads, sample volumes, and drainage areas for six Menomonee River Watershed sampling locations Human-associated indicator bacteria and human specific virus loads, sample volumes, and drainage areas for six Menomonee River Watershed sampling locations
Human-associated indicator bacteria and human specific viruses in the Menomonee River watershed in Milwaukee, WI were investigated from April 2009 to March 2011 at six sampling locations within the watershed. We used concentration and water volume data from runoff-event and low-flow periods to compute loads for each sample collected, and subsequently used those loads, and drainage area...
