This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Data Release provides derivative statistics of water used by Kansas public-supply systems in 2016. Gallons per capita per day (gpcd) was calculated using self-reported information in the “Part B: Monthly Water Use Summary” and “Part C: Population, Service Connections, and Water Rates” sections of the Kansas Department of Agriculture, Division of Water...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the National Marine Sanctuary Program of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), has conducted seabed mapping and related research in the Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary (SBNMS) region since 1993. The interpretive datasets and source information presented here are for quadrangle 2, which is one of 18...

This data release contains 15 variables from the National Hydrologic Model Infrastructure with the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (NHM-PRMS) version 1.1 modeling application forced with CONUS404-BA (Markstrom and others, 2024) from January 1980 through September 2021 that are summarized to a monthly time step and a twelve-digit hydrologic unit code for the spatial extent of the...

Groundwater, surface-water, and associated quality assurance samples were collected downgradient of an abandoned fire training area and wastewater infiltration beds on western Cape Cod, Massachusetts and analyzed for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from 2014-2019. Water-quality properties measured at the time of sample collection include pH, specific conductance, temperature...

In order to understand the provenance of lead in the surface water, groundwater, soils, and shallow pore water within and near the Middleton Municipal Airport–Morey Field (C29) in Middleton, WI, a subset of samples were sent to the Wisconsin State Lab of Hygiene for analysis. The results of these analyses are included in this data release and include both low-level lead concentrations...

In September and November 2023, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, collected geophysical surveys of 5 karst drainage features (sinkholes) in eastern Genesee County, New York, in order to study the nature of the subsurface fill material, bedrock topography, and karst dissolution features. Sites were surveyed using...

This dataset contains U-Pb isotopic data and associated ages of zircons from selected igneous rocks collected from the region surrounding and including the uplands of the United States Territory of Puerto Rico. The samples were collected as part of geological mapping and research conducted during 2018 and funded by the Mineral Resources Program of the U.S. Geological Survey. Zircon...

This data set contains various reported age determinations from various rock types collected from the larger region surrounding and including the islands of the Greater Antilles and United States Territory of Puerto Rico. Although a select few of the samples were collected as part of geological mapping and research conducted and funded by the Mineral Resources Program of the U.S...

Precipitation, volumetric soil-water content, videos, and geophone data characterizing postfire debris flows were collected at the 2022 Hermit’s Peak Calf-Canyon Fire in New Mexico. This dataset contains data from June 22, 2022, to June 26, 2024. The data were obtained from a station located at 35° 42’ 28.86” N, 105° 27’ 18.03” W (geographic coordinate system). Each data type is...

Rainfall, volumetric soil-water content, video, and geophone data characterizing postfire rainfall and runoff were collected at two stations in the 2020 Calwood Fire Burn Area in Colorado. This release contains data from stations at two sites named Heil Ranch (40° 8' 43.47" N, 105° 20' 26.352" W) and Calwood (40° 9' 4.76" N, 105° 21' 20.79" W). The data presented here were collected from...

USGS is assessing the feasibility of map projections and grid systems for lunar surface operations. We propose developing a new Lunar Transverse Mercator (LTM), the Lunar Polar Stereographic (LPS), and the Lunar Grid Reference Systems (LGRS). We have also designed additional grids to meet NASA requirements for astronaut navigation, referred to as LGRS in Artemis Condensed Coordinates...

Acoustic recorders can detect the presence of birds and these detections may be used for the purpose of population abundance or estimation. This monitoring project compared the abundance of tundra-breeding birds detected through both acoustic monitoring and observational surveys. The data package is comprised of four tables: (1) habitat type, including vegetation height at sites where...
