Orthomosaic maps of the Clackamas River, Oregon, produced from images acquired April 16-18, 2024 Orthomosaic maps of the Clackamas River, Oregon, produced from images acquired April 16-18, 2024

A Cessna 182 fixed-wing aircraft equipped with a multispectral camera was used to collect aerial imagery of selected river reaches within the Willamette River Integrated Water Science basin in Oregon. On April 16-18, 2024, image acquisition was focused on four reaches of the Clackamas River. Photogrammetry techniques were applied to the images consisting of visible or red, green, and...

Sediment Laboratory Quality Assurance Project Data, 1999 - 2024 Sediment Laboratory Quality Assurance Project Data, 1999 - 2024

The collection and analysis of fluvial sediment samples has been an integral part of hydrologic studies in the United States for over 125 years (Gordon and others, 2000). Accurate measurement of sediment concentrations and its movement in streams is critical to maintaining important infrastructure and habitats in the Nation’s waterways, such as impoundments and estuaries (Hudson and...

Downscaling and multi-scale modeling of stream temperature in five watersheds of the Delaware River Basin, 1979-2021 Downscaling and multi-scale modeling of stream temperature in five watersheds of the Delaware River Basin, 1979-2021

This model archive (Fan et al. 2025a) provides all data, code, and model outputs used in the corresponding manuscript (Fan et al. 2025b) to test machine learning (ML) methods for downscaling and multi-scale modeling of stream temperature to combine an ML model and/or input data at coarse spatial resolution with an ML model and/or input data at fine spatial resolution to predict stream...

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...

Data for Evaluation of Nutrient, Alkalinity, and Acid Neutralizing Capacity Stabilities in Water Samples Analyzed by the National Water Quality Laboratory -- 2023-2024 Data for Evaluation of Nutrient, Alkalinity, and Acid Neutralizing Capacity Stabilities in Water Samples Analyzed by the National Water Quality Laboratory -- 2023-2024

The U.S. Geological Survey evaluated the stability of water-sample chemical analysis of nutrient, alkalinity, and acid neutralizing capacity constituents with respect to the duration between sample collection and laboratory analysis, also known as sample holding times. Included in this data release are results used to evaluate the stability of the chemical properties alkalinity (as...

Distance matrices and river-network crosswalks for the Geospatial Fabric v1.1 to support data-driven models of water quality in U.S. rivers Distance matrices and river-network crosswalks for the Geospatial Fabric v1.1 to support data-driven models of water quality in U.S. rivers

This data release contains hydrologic network information to support national modeling of water quality in streams and rivers, including distance matrices that represent the spatial relationships among modeled river reaches. These data can be used as inputs to data-driven models that leverage information about spatial proximity to make predictions of water quantity or quality. The...

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...
