Science Datasets
The data collected and the techniques used by USGS scientists should conform to or reference national and international standards and protocols if they exist and when they are relevant and appropriate. For datasets of a given type, and if national or international metadata standards exist, the data are indexed with metadata that facilitates access and integration.
2018 Known and Probable Grizzly Bear Mortalities in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem
Identifying the locations and causes of grizzly bear mortality is another key component in understanding the dynamics of this population. Over 80% of all documented bear mortalities are human-caused. Tracking human-caused bear deaths helps define patterns and trends that can direct management programs designed to reduce bear mortality.
2014 Known and Probable Grizzly Bear Mortalities in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem
Identifying the locations and causes of grizzly bear mortality is another key component in understanding the dynamics of this population. Over 80% of all documented bear mortalities are human-caused. Tracking human-caused bear deaths helps define patterns and trends that can direct management programs designed to reduce bear mortality.
2015 Known and Probable Grizzly Bear Mortalities in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem
Identifying the locations and causes of grizzly bear mortality is another key component in understanding the dynamics of this population. Over 80% of all documented bear mortalities are human-caused. Tracking human-caused bear deaths helps define patterns and trends that can direct management programs designed to reduce bear mortality.
2019 Known and Probable Grizzly Bear Mortalities in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem
Identifying the locations and causes of grizzly bear mortality is another key component in understanding the dynamics of this population. Over 80% of all documented bear mortalities are human-caused. Tracking human-caused bear deaths helps define patterns and trends that can direct management programs designed to reduce bear mortality.
Forestry and soil moisture data from Sugarloaf Creek Basin, CA; 1970-2017
The data from Sugarloaf Creek Basin (SCB) in Sequoia Kings Canyon National Park contained herein include forest inventory plots which were installed in 1970 and re-measured in 2017 for tree and shrub inventories; classified vegetation layers produced from raster images collected in 1973 from aerial orthophotos and in 2014 from satellites; spatially-distributed soil moisture measurements m
Inshore Catch Data for Capelin (Mallotus villosus) in the Gulf of Alaska, 1996-2017
These data consist of larval (< 60 mm) and age-1+ (> 60 mm) Capelin CPUE (Catch per unit effort) from various catch efforts throughout the Gulf of Alaska (GOA) from 1996 – 2017. The dataset contains the following information: fishing gear type, date, time, catch location (latitude and longitude), tow distance, number of capelin caught, and CPUE for
Aquatic community and environmental data for 14 rivers and streams in the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District Planning Area, 2004-13.
In 2004, 2007, 2010, and 2013, the U.S. Geological Survey sampled benthic algae and invertebrates, and fish to assess the condition of the aquatic communities and water quality in 14 wadable streams near Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Additional community sampling was also done at a subset of three sites in 2011 and 2012 to assess temporal variation. Selected environmental (physical and chem
Magnetotelluric data from the Northwest Geysers, 2017, station gz07
This dataset consists of 42 magnetotelluric (MT) stations collected in 2017 in the Northwest Geysers, CA. The U.S. Geological Survey acquired these data as part of a project to image the heat source in the Northwest Geysers. Support was from the U.S. Geological Survey's Volcano Hazards Program.
Magnetotelluric data from the Northwest Geysers, 2017, station gz31
This dataset consists of 42 magnetotelluric (MT) stations collected in 2017 in the Northwest Geysers, CA. The U.S. Geological Survey acquired these data as part of a project to image the heat source in the Northwest Geysers. Support was from the U.S. Geological Survey's Volcano Hazards Program.
Potential groundwater recharge estimates based on a groundwater rise analysis technique for two agricultural sites in southeastern Minnesota, 2016-2018
A water table fluctuation model simulated potential recharge rates from 2016 to 2018 for two agricultural sites in southeastern Minnesota. The model calculated potential recharge rates through the analysis of groundwater rises. A total of 42 piezometers were analyzed for this study using the water table fluctuation model. This methodology of calculating potential recharge rates was used as an...
