This dataset contains results of generalized least-squares (GLS) regression for 63 streamflow gaging stations (streamgages) operated by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) on urban streams in Washington D.C. and parts of Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Virginia. This dataset was created to support the Washington D.C. StreamStats project funded by the Washington D.C...

This dataset contains results of weighted least-squares (WLS) regression for 42 streamflow gaging stations (streamgages) operated by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) on urban streams in Alabama and Mississippi. WLS regression was used to relate drainage area and the percentages of the drainage basins of the streamgages in developed land use (the sum of classes 21-24 from the 2011...

NOAA’s Assessment Technical Support Unit (TSU) created a suite of temperature and precipitation metrics of extremes and threshold exceedance variables based on the Climate Model Intercomparison Program Phase 6 CMIP6 Localized Constructed Analogs (CMIP6-LOCA2) data set to support the Fifth National Climate Assessment (NCA5). Following the v20240915 revision of the CMIP6-LOCA2...

The Barrier Island Comprehensive Monitoring (BICM) program was developed by Louisiana’s Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority (CPRA) and is implemented as a component of the System Wide Assessment and Monitoring Program (SWAMP). The program uses both historical data and contemporary data collections to assess and monitor changes in the aerial and subaqueous extent of islands...

The data tables in this product include concentrations, detection frequencies, benchmark exceedances, and trends of pesticides in riverine surface water samples. The data are a product of a national-scale assessment of the status and trends of 84 pesticides at 81 sites during water years 2013 - 2022 conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Water Quality Program. Data were...

This data release presents field and laboratory rock magnetic measurements from rocks from the Blanca Peak region of the Sangre de Cristo Range in southern Colorado. These data include averages of magnetic susceptibility from 2 to 12 measurements per site made with a handheld meter, quantifying magnetic contrasts between rock units that could be detected in geophysical surveys...

Bald Eagle ridge, located about 14 km west of Leadville, Colorado, is slowly spreading and sagging, resulting in sackungen that have been monitored by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) since the mid-1970s (for example, Varnes and others, 1989; Varnes and others, 1990; Varnes and others, 2000). The ridge forms the southeastern flank of the glaciated Busk Creek valley and is underlain by

We assessed the performance of the real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) assay under different soil textures. We combined sand, silt and clay in different proportions to create experimental soils representative of southwest Wisconsin, USA. Experimental soils were spiked with a brain homogenate from a chronic wasting disease positive white-tailed deer (to test assay sensitivity)...

The Louisiana State Legislature created the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in order to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. The wetland restoration plans developed pursuant to these acts specifically require an evaluation of the effectiveness of each coastal wetlands restoration project in achieving long-term solutions to...

This dataset includes subplot-level ecosystem carbon stocks and functional plant group cover prior to fuel-treatment and ten years after fuel-treatment. Carbon pools include live trees, burned trees, tree litter, shrubs, annual herbaceous vegetation, perennial herbaceous vegetation, dead herbaceous vegetation, coarse woody debris, interspace litter, interspace roots, soil organic carbon...

Ontogenetic niche shifts are almost universal in fishes and many other organisms and are thus often important to factor in conservation planning. However, some aspects of ontogeny, such as trophic shifts, remain poorly understood in many fishes. Eye lens stable isotope analysis has proven a powerful tool in understanding the ontogeny of some marine species, but few studies have applied...

This data release contains near-surface geophysical and hydrological datasets collected along a historic coal-mining impacted reach of Nanticoke Creek near Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, which is completely dry at its terminus during baseflow conditions. The release includes specific conductance data from a series of sodium chloride tracer slug injection experiments conducted on June 11...
