These mosaics, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide lidar-derived first-surface and bare-earth topography for the Menard Creek Corridor Unit of Big Thicket National Preserve in Texas. Elevation measurements were acquired by the second-generation Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL-B) on January 21 and 22, 2014, in coopera

These data sets contain information on the probabilities of hurricane-induced erosion (collision, inundation and overwash) for each 1-km section of the Gulf of Mexico coast for category 1-5 hurricanes. The analysis is based on a storm-impact scaling model that uses observations of beach morphology combined with sophisticated hydrodynamic models to predict how the coast will respond to the direct l

These mosaics, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide pre- and post-calibration lidar-derived submerged topography for a portion of the submerged environs of Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Elevation measurements were acquired by the second-generation Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL-B) on April 21 and 22, 2014. The data were

This XYZ dataset, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provides lidar-derived seamless (bare earth and submerged) topography for the Chandeleur Islands in Louisiana. Elevation measurements were acquired by the first-generation Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL) on February 12 and 13, 2011. The data were collected as part of a s

This web page provides access to oceanographic and water-quality observations made at four locations in two Southern California Coastal Wetlands. The objective was to compare an urbanized wetland with limited sediment supply (Seal Beach) to a less modified marsh with fluvial sediment supply (Mugu). Marine temperature, conductivity, pressure, optical turbidity, and acoustic velocity sensors were de

These datasets, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide lidar-derived first-surface and bare-earth topography for Dauphin Island, Alabama. Elevation measurements were acquired by the Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL) during September 2005, immediately following Hurricane Katrina landfall.

These datasets, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide lidar-derived first-surface and bare-earth topography for Dauphin Island, Alabama. Elevation measurements were acquired by the Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL) on July 24, 2010, one day before remnants from the dissipated Tropical Storm Bonnie came ashore.

Sedimentologic and topographic data from Hurricane Sandy washover deposits were collected from Southern Long Beach Island, New Jersey, in order to document changes to the barrier-island beaches, dunes, and coastal wetlands due to Hurricane Sandy and subsequent storm events. These data will provide a baseline dataset for use in future coastal change descriptive and predictive studies and assessment

This dataset contains binary point-cloud data and a Digital Elevation Model (DEM), produced from remotely sensed, geographically referenced topobathymetric measurements encompassing the Breton Island and Gosier Islands, LA study area. The original area of interest was buffered by 100 meters to ensure complete coverage, resulting in approximately 75 square miles of lidar data. The Breton Island Li

The Barrier Island and Estuarine Wetland Physical Change Assessment Dataset was created to calibrate and test probability models of barrier island sandline and estuarine shoreline change for study areas in Virginia, Maryland, and New Jersey. The models examined the influence of hydrologic and physical variables related to storm-derived overwash and estuarine shoreline change. Variables were calcul

These mosaics, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide lidar-derived first-surface and bare-earth topography for the Little Pine Island Bayou Corridor Unit of Big Thicket National Preserve in Texas. Elevation measurements were acquired by the second-generation Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL-B) on January 15, 21, 22, 26,

These mosaics, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center, provide lidar-derived first-surface and bare-earth topography for the Big Sandy Creek Corridor Unit of Big Thicket National Preserve in Texas. Elevation measurements were acquired by the second-generation Experimental Advanced Airborne Research Lidar (EAARL-B) on January 19, 21, 22, 29, and 30,
