Concentrations for 26 PFAS detected in muscle tissues (edible fillets) of 16 estuarine fishes collected from four estuaries along Florida’s Atlantic coast between April 2021 and January 2023.

The U.S. Geological Survey and a consortium of local governments in North Carolina have partnered together to track water quality and quantity conditions in several of the area’s water-supply reservoirs and streams, known as the Triangle Area Water Supply Monitoring Project (TAWSMP). This data release contains the associated data described in the Open-File Report, "Triangle Area Water...

Embryonic zebrafish (Danio rerio) were exposed to 0, 1, 5, 10, or 50 micrograms per liter carbamazepine (CBZ) from 2 hours post fertilization (hpf) through hatching, and then sampled at 48, 72, or 144 hpf. Larvae collected at 48, 72, and 144 hpf were assessed for transcriptomic profiles using RNA sequencing. Larvae collected at 72 and 144 hpf time points were assessed for histological...

These data describe tracking information and provide location data collected in support of the U.S. Geological Survey Saline Lakes Ecosystems Integrated Water Availability Assessment Program (USGS SLE IWAA). The data are provided using standardized formats and an attribute dictionary produced by the Movebank platform (movebank.org). These spreadsheets are a subset of an interrelated...

The Los Angeles River flows through a heavily urbanized area and the river is managed for multiple uses, including flood control, habitat, and recreation. The objective of this study was to collect data on stream flow and suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) at sites along the Los Angeles River and its tributaries in the Sepulveda Flood Control Basin (SFCB) to better understand...

This dataset consists of eight sandstone samples and four ash samples collected from the Bidahochi basin that were analyzed for U-Pb zircon ages. The dataset accompanies the publication "Late Miocene Colorado River arrival in Bidahochi basin permits spillover origin of Grand Canyon". Samples were collected from the field by Ryan Crow (USGS) and John Douglass (Paradise Valley Community...

Continuous 15-minute time-series suspended-sediment concentration (SSC) data computed from U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) instream turbidity data using a YSI EXO2 multi-parameter water quality sonde for the San Joaquin River at Prisoners Point near Terminous, California, USGS station #11313460. A Model Archive Summary (MAS) describes the development of a continuous 15-minute SSC time...

Methane gas bubbles emitted from the seafloor transport methane through the water column. Methane transport is important to track because of the substantial role methane plays in biological processes and in the Earth’s climate system. Existing models used to predict methane transport based on methane dissolution rates from rising bubbles generally estimate bubble rise velocity from the...

This report and accompanying maps and database address the geologic and geophysical character of a block of ten 7.5’ quadrangles that span the San Gorgonio Pass region. The study culminates more than four decades of intermittent geologic and geophysical mapping investigations by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS). Published results from these investigations fall into two categories: (1)...

As part of the larger Great Lakes Cooperative Science and Monitoring Initiative (CSMI) , the U.S. Geological Survey Mercury, Metals, and Microplastics Research Laboratory (USGS M3RL) completed a binational assessment partnering with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA), Environmental Climate Change Canada (ECCC), Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry (ONRF)...

These data were compiled in support of the Post-2026 Operational Guidelines and Strategies for Lake Powell and Lake Mead (Post 2026) Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). These data were outputs from models that estimate annual minimum dissolved oxygen and daily water temperature in the Colorado River below Glen Canyon Dam. The objective of our study was to predict water temperatures and...

Two data files are included. The first includes GPS locations (~ 22k) of adult brown pelicans (n = 7) and the second includes characteristics of foraging trips (n = 552) from these same seven birds. Pelicans were outfitted with GPS satellite tags during incubation and data collected for the longevity of the tag. Movement data were used to define use areas during the breeding season...
