Data

This data release contains acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) configuration information, stage-area and index velocity rating tables, and associated metadata for 22 U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) flow monitoring stations in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.

This dataset includes information on the external microbiome of various bat species in the southwestern United States. We describe the level of Pseudogymnoascus destructans (Pd) inhibition characters of the bacteria and the associated GenBank accession numbers are provided. The dataset appears as supplemental tables 1-4 in the associated manuscript. Supplemental Table 1 provides a...

The ~21 m deep Mammoth Site (MS) bone bed site at Hot Springs, South Dakota, provides a unique opportunity to reconstruct paleoenvironmental conditions on the northern Great Plains of the United States. Past published radiocarbon analyses of mammoth bones found within the MS sinkhole suggested they were deposited ~23-42 ka. However, two U-series ages ranging between 129-150 ka and a

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collects magnetic susceptibility measurements on in-situ and laboratory rock samples to help identify the sources of anomalies in aeromagnetic surveys in Alaska. Magnetic susceptibility is a measure of how much a material will become magnetized in an applied magnetic field and is the ratio of magnetization, M (magnetic moment per unit volume), to the...

LiDAR scans were taken using a tripod mounted Riegl VZ-400 scanning LiDAR. The tripod was set up such that the scanner was between 1 and 2.5 m tall. The VZ-400 is a near infrared (1550 nm) scanner. Geometric control was achieved, when the sky was visible, using a pair of Trimble RB GPS antennae, one mounted on the LiDAR scanner (rover) and the other setup as a base station. Before taking...

During the 2020 breeding season, Double-crested Cormorants invaded the historic breeding colony of a mixed species wading bird rookery in the Chesapeake Bay, resulting in the destruction of suitable nesting habitat and subsequent relocation of the rookery the following breeding season. This new rookery was established at a site where soil pH was being measured for an unrelated study...

Three complementary datasets are presented: seismic recordings; photogrammetric point clouds; and rebound hammer measurements. On 4-5 March 2020, U.S. Geological Survey simultaneously collected three-component seismic data from three sites within the Trona Pinnacles National Natural Landmark: the top of a "skinny" pinnacle; the top of a "stout" pinnacle; and at a "reference" site. The...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP), developed one-dimensional U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Hydrologic Engineering Center’s River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) hydraulic models for stream crossing sites in the Housatonic River watershed, Massachusetts. An automated Geographic Information System (GIS...

These geospatial datasets correspond to the extraction of elements and their attributes related to the shoreline and back beach of eleven (11) municipalities in the northwest and north coasts of Puerto Rico (Rincón, Aguadilla, Isabela, Hatillo, Arecibo, Dorado, Vega Baja, Carolina, Loíza, Río Grande, and Luquillo). These data were generated as part of the USGS Development of Coastal...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release contains data from stream water and groundwater samples collected in July through October 2024 at the Perigo Mine site in Gilpin County, northern Colorado. Data were collected as part of a study aimed at characterizing the local groundwater flow system in the hillslope hosting the mine’s draining crosscut tunnel, and identifying sources of...

Data describe environmental DNA (eDNA) concentrations from invasive silver (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and bighead carp (H. nobilis), collectively called bigheaded carps (Hypophthalmichthys spp.), from Missouri’s Creve Coeur Lake and Mallard Lake before and after a mass carp removal effort in 2018 at Creve Coeur Lake (2018-01-29). Six sampling trips occurred from 2017-2018, with 3...

The dataset contains information on where the Appalachia Grizzled Skippers (AGS) were found, by state and date (2021-2024). Dataset also provides weather information at time of survey, and duration of survey.
