Python Tools in Support of 'Geochemical Data for Rock, Sediment, Soil, and Mineral Samples, United States and Territories, 1962 to 2023' Python Tools in Support of 'Geochemical Data for Rock, Sediment, Soil, and Mineral Samples, United States and Territories, 1962 to 2023'
This software release consists of two tools for filtering and reformatting geochemical data from the associated data release of Granitto and others, 2025. They are provided as a Python toolbox for use in ArcGIS Pro, and scripts that can be used in the open-source software QGIS. Inputs to the ArcGIS tools should be stored in the file geodatabase or GeoPackage formats. The QGIS tools can...
QFASA Robustness to Assumption Violations: Computer Code QFASA Robustness to Assumption Violations: Computer Code
Quantitative fatty acid signature analysis (QFASA; Iverson et al. 2004) has become a common method of estimating diet composition, especially for marine mammals, but the performance of the method has received limited investigation. Bromaghin et al. (In press) used computer simulation to compare the bias of several QFASA estimators and developed recommendations regarding estimator...
Nest Survival Bias Analysis Nest Survival Bias Analysis
This R script will run one replicate of one scenario used by Weiser (in review) to quantify biases in estimates of nest survival when nests are not found at the beginning of the nesting interval (age 0). The script simulates nest monitoring histories based on input parameters, applies models with or without an age effect to estimate daily survival rates, and calculates nest survival (to...
Pedestrian Evacuation Analyst Tool Pedestrian Evacuation Analyst Tool
The Pedestrian Evacuation Analyst is an ArcGIS extension that estimates how long it would take for someone to travel on foot out of a hazardous area that was threatened by a sudden event such as a tsunami, flash flood, or volcanic lahar. It takes into account the elevation changes and the different types of landcover that a person would encounter along the way.
