Data

This is a 10 column x 422 row CSV data file from a Wildlife Computer MiniPAT pop-off satellite tag logging data from a Gulf sturgeon (Acipenser desotoi) in the Choctawhatchee River, FL. Data is temperature and depth data at 5 minute intervals on Oct 9th and 10th, 2025, transmitted through Argos, downloaded through the Wildlife Computers portal. Depth sensor has an accuracy of 0.5 m...

This data release includes 2024 data for the Louisiana Outer Coast Restoration Project for North Breton Island. Specifically, this data release includes a detailed habitat map, general habitat map, and georeferenced imagery. These habitat maps are developed using the methods and classification scheme from Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority’s (CPRA) Barrier Island...

This data release includes 2025 data for the Louisiana Outer Coast Restoration Project for Chenier Ronquille. Specifically, this data release includes a detailed habitat map, general habitat map, and georeferenced imagery. These habitat maps are developed using the methods and classification scheme from Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority’s (CPRA) Barrier Island...

Plant communities, including those found in coastal wetlands, often reflect ecosystem processes and conditions at local and landscape scales more effectively than any other set of factors, and different communities can influence processes such as hydrodynamics, vertical accretion, and carbon burial in distinct ways. Thus, accurate land cover data in the region is fundamental for...

This data release contains Burmese python spatial locations from individuals tracked between 2005 and 2026 in the Greater Everglades Ecosystem.

The freshwater mussel genus Obovaria (Bivalvia: Unionidae) has been recognized as taxonomically challenging due to difficulties distinguishing intraspecific variation in shell shape from interspecific convergence. Here we provide details of molecular data used in an integrative approach to investigate species boundaries in Obovaria in the Gulf Coastal Plain and adjacent drainages. The...

Consistent individual differences in animal behavior (i.e., personality traits) can influence multiple components of fitness, including predation risk. Because prey species often encounter multiple predator types, the relationship between personality traits and predation risk may vary depending on predator foraging strategy. Using hispid cotton rats (Sigmodon hispidus) as a model system...

Adult male Fathead Minnows (Pimephales promelas) were exposed to water containing per- and polyfluoroalkyl compounds (PFAS) derived from aqueous film-forming foam in mobile laboratories on location at the USGS Toxic Substance Hydrology Groundwater Research Site on Cape Cod, MA. In 2024, to investigate potential effects on male reproductive parameters, two groundwater wells, including one...

Seed banks were collected in freshwater wetlands of the Lower Mississippi River Delta with previous populations of the invasive Lythrum salicaria. Cyperus difformis was one other invasive species was found in the seedbank.

Ecological models facilitate evaluation of alternative approaches to restore the Greater Everglades ecosystem. However, the provision of useful and accessible models is a challenge because there is often a disconnect between model output and its use by decision makers. Joint Ecosystem Modeling (JEM) meets this challenge by providing ecological model output tailored to management...

The Barrier Island Comprehensive Monitoring (BICM) program was developed by Louisiana’s Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) and is implemented as a component of the System Wide Assessment and Monitoring Program (SWAMP). The program uses both historical data and contemporary data collections to assess and monitor changes in the aerial and subaqueous extent of islands...
