The Tri-State Mining District (TSMD) is an area encompassing portions of Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma in which lead and zinc mining historically occurred. To further investigate the relationship between metal contamination and unionid communities, goals of this study were as follows; 1) Conduct a reconnaissance survey of the North Fork Spring River, Spring River, Center Creek, Shoal...

This software compares statistical methods to model habitat risk of CWD in white-tailed deer in Pennsylvania using Bayesian hierarchical models in R-INLA and compares these results with model output from WinBugs. The software also uses R-INLA with the Stochastic Partial Differential Approach (SPDE) to compare different surveillance methods to model CWD in relation to habitat features and...

These five datasets document 1. physical and chemical soil properties for mesocosm soil that was collected from an experimental vegetated buffer strip plot; 2. Corrected final data for veterinary antibiotic target compound residues in treated soil mesocosms at various incubation times; 3. Corrected final data for all veterinary antibiotic target compound residues in untreated soil...

We measured Survival endpoints for juvenile rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in response to exposure to wildland fire retardants. Exposures were less than 24 hours. We documented time to mortality hourly through 12 hours of exposure and again at 24 hours. This data set includes data for three current use fire retardants from the US Forest Service Qualified Products List (Phos-Chek 259...

These data include water chemistry from headwater streams to large rivers that have recently turned orange and reference rivers that have not. These samples were collected in two national parks in Arctic Alaska: Kobuk Valley National Park, and Noatak National Preserve.

The Coastal Cactus Wren is a species of high conservation concern in southern California. The goal of this project was to obtain taxonomic resolution of subspecies boundaries between coastal and desert populations of Cactus Wrens. We collected genetic samples from Cactus Wrens at California desert sites and combined this dataset with previously collected samples from coastal populations...

Data presented are results of vegetation sampling conducted in 2019-20 and 2023 in 24 survey plots to document the status of infestation by shot hole borers (Euwallacea sp.) on the riparian vegetation at the San Diego River. This dataset presents location, percent cover of different vegetation types, and number of seedlings for each survey plot. In addition, for each tree and sapling in...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release includes locations for 12,422 USGS streamgages as indexed along the network of streams (flowlines) in NHDPlus Version 2.1 (NHDPlus v2, Moore and Dewald, 2016). The dataset is one of two datasets developed for the Streamgage Watershed InforMation (SWIM) project. This dataset, which is referred to as “SWIM streamgage locations,” was created...

Scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center in St. Petersburg, Florida (USGS - SPCSMC), conducted a geophysical survey within the interior bay north of the Tyndall Air Force Base, Panama City, Florida, during June 2022. During this study, multibeam bathymetry and acoustic backscatter data were collected aboard the research vessel (R/V)...

Laboratory experiments were performed between 2019 and 2020 to examine how dissolved organic matter (DOM) and phytoplankton (Raphidocelis subcapitata) cells alter mercury (Hg) uptake and isotope fractionation. Experiments were performed at ambient Hg to thiol ratios using natural organic matter isolates received from collaborators at the University of California-Davis. Two types of...

The data includes dates, places, and times of sampling events for eggs of invasive Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) in tributaries to the Great Lakes in 2021 and 2022. Reference data on locations and dates sampled, gears used, and effort are included. Developmental stages for a subset of undamaged, fertilized eggs are provided. Tables include common fields to allow for integration...

This study contains TOC and programmed pyrolysis data, as well as vitrinite reflectance collected from 12 samples taken from the Babouri-Figuil Sedimentary basin in northern Cameroon.
