Passive seismic depth to bedrock data collected along the Slate River floodplain, CO, USA 2021 Passive seismic depth to bedrock data collected along the Slate River floodplain, CO, USA 2021

Using the horizontal-to-vertical spectral-ratio (HVSR) method, we inferred the depth to bedrock at the Slate River Floodplain, CO, USA. The point-scale passive seismic data were collected using Model TEP-3C Tromino seismometers over 20 min or less intervals with the instruments coupled directly to the floodplain ground surface at 42 non-flooded locations during June 2021. The ratio of...

Upper Colorado River Basin: Monitoring sites and water chemistry data used to develop a specific conductance - salinity proxy model Upper Colorado River Basin: Monitoring sites and water chemistry data used to develop a specific conductance - salinity proxy model

Salinity levels in streams and tributaries of the Colorado River Basin have been a major concern for years. Recently, the United States Geological Survey’s (USGS) Next Generation Water Observing System (NGWOS) program expanded stream monitoring networks including the number of sites where continuous (15-minute) specific conductance is measured in the Colorado River Headwaters and...
