Data

The dataset focusing on research publications related to the American horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus) and ecological studies over multiple decades. The dataset contains detailed information about individual research publications, including: Year and Decade of publication. Publication Title and a Link to access the document. Classification of publications based on their relation to either Ecolo

This dataset was developed to estimate point-source total nitrogen and phosphorous loads to streams in the conterminous United States (U.S.) from December 1999 to November 2020. This dataset uses discharge and concentration information from point sources to streams in the conterminous United States from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Integrated Compliance Information System - Permi

This data release includes data provided by Colorado Springs Utilities to the U.S. Geological Survey. Two types of data are included here. First are daily average effluent discharge rates from the Las Vegas Street Wastewater Treatment Facility and JD Phillips Water Resource Recovery Facility along with the sum of rates on dates with available data. Second are daily total volumes of potable water d

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Fish Passage Facility, located on the White River, Washington State, collects upstream-migrating fish and transfers them to trucks, allowing the fish to access the watershed upstream of Mud Mountain Dam. The structure, constructed in 2019, includes an impoundment held by gates that can be raised or lowered remotely. Those gates are typically lowered during higher f

This dataset includes elevation-based probability and depth statistics for estimating inundation under various sea-level rise and high tide flooding scenarios in and around the National Park Service’s Dry Tortugas National Park. These datasets were developed using digital elevation model (DEM) from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). This data release includes results from anal

Data used to predict flow characteristics of transfers of water between hydrologic basins at the hydrologic unit code 8 (HUC8 scale) using tree-based ensemble models—random forest models for Colorado and M5 cubist models for the Northeast Region (parts of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York)—are presented and documented in this data release. Interbasin transfers (IBTs) of waters are important c

Open pit uranium mining in Atascosa, Karnes, and Live Oak Counties in the Texas gulf coast region was active during the second half of the 20th century. Understanding the history of these mining operations is important for proper management and restoration. Although some mines have extensive records documenting the locations and extents of mining pits and mine waste-rock piles, and provide descrip

Non-native passerines, common canary (Serinus canaria; n=24) and the common myna (Acridotheres tristis; n=19), were captured by US Fish and Wildlife Service Biologists on Sand Island, Midway Atoll, and had a blood sample taken to test for avian malaria (Plasmodium relictum) infection. Blood samples were analyzed for the presence of avian malaria DNA using a Realtime PCR (qPCR) assay. No evidence o

This USGS data release consists of six data sets and accompanying metadata for a year-long study on the seasonal distribution and relative abundance of the southern house mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus in Kīpahulu Valley, Haleakalā National Park, critical habitat for two endangered Maui endemic forest birds. Culex quinquefasciatus is the vector of the avian malaria Plasmodium relictum, a key limi

In July 1992 soils were sampled from six dune fields in the northern Lower Peninsula of Michigan near Wilderness State Park, about 10 miles southwest of Mackinaw City. The dune fields represent a soil chronosequence, where all soil forming factors except time are held constant (climate, organisms, relief, and parent material). These sandy lake terrace soils are Entisols and Spodosols (Podzols), wi

The Massachusetts Drought Management Plan (DMP, 2023) uses data from select lake and impoundment systems as an index for drought in six of seven regions in the state. The contents of these lakes and impoundments are reported to Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and classified as one of five levels for drought severity ranging from level 0 (Normal; percentile greater tha

The occurrence and impact of the February 2023 earthquake doublet in Türkiye, where an Mw 7.8 event was followed roughly 9 hours later by an Mw 7.5 event on an adjacent fault, begs the question: What would be the impact of such a sequence in California? As part of the effort to address this question, this Data Release consists of simulated ground motions for a hypothetical doublet scenario on the
