The U.S. Geological Survey evaluated the stability of water-sample chemical analysis of nutrient, alkalinity, and acid neutralizing capacity constituents with respect to the duration between sample collection and laboratory analysis, also known as sample holding times. Included in this data release are results used to evaluate the stability of the chemical properties alkalinity (as...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release accompanies planned publication ‘New constraints on location and timing of the Great Lakes tectonic zone, central Upper Peninsula, Michigan, USA. The data release includes laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) U-Pb zircon data and/or U-Pb apatite data for two samples from the Upper Peninsula, Michigan, USA...

This dataset contains site information and results of flood-frequency analysis for 422 streamflow gaging stations (streamgages) operated by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in parts of the Upper Mississippi and Souris-Red-Rainy basins and surrounding areas in the United States. Annual peak-flow data from the 1844 - 2013 water years were used in the study (U.S. Geological Survey, 2024)...

Monitoring population connectivity to inform management is especially important in regions at the very edges of wilderness where native fauna and flora face habitat reduction, degradation, and fragmentation. One such region is the Ivanpah valley along the California/Nevada border, where development (i.e., solar facilities, recreational utility vehicle use) continues to encroach on the...

This data release provides shapefiles that represent storage assessment units (SAUs) and drilling-density cells in the Central California Coast, Los Angeles, Sacramento, San Joaquin, and Ventura Basins of California in the United States. The SAU is the fundamental unit used in the National Assessment of Geologic Carbon Dioxide Storage Resources project for the assessment of geologic CO2...

Collection data for rabbit tissues sequenced for metagenomic evaluation of selected tissues.

Ar/Ar data are for 12 samples that record the eruption age of tephra. The geochronology provides time constraints for the ages of tephra and interbedded sediments and fossils from Kenya and Ethiopia. Samples were collected by Erin Dimaggio (Pennsylvania State University), who brought them to the USGS Denver Argon Geochronology Laboratory for Ar/Ar analysis. Samples were analyzed in...

This document describes sedimentary rock samples and their associated detrital zircon U-Pb data that were collected to support geologic mapping and research initiatives within the context of the Geologic Framework of the Intermountain West Project. The data characterize the age and/or provenance of Neoproterozoic to Miocene strata exposed across the Intermountain West region of the...

Efforts to quantify and explain individual size distributions (ISD) are prominent in ecological research and potentially for applications to management which increasingly consider ecosystem-scale objectives. We use a nation-wide database of individual size measurements for United States stream fishes paired with species’ traits and test for direct and indirect effects of traits, flow...

This dataset provides detailed information on availability of model resources (including models and datasets) that support the modeling of six key water-quality constituents (or constituent categories) across the hydrologic system. In addition, resources associated with nine “cross-cutting” topics for modeling water quality are included, with “cross-cutting” defined herein as having...

Biodiversity measures provide insight into ecological processes like productivity and ecosystem stability, and rare, vulnerable species are a major component of freshwater biodiversity. This data release provides the data used to address multiple ecological questions about fish and habitat conditions throughout a large section of the St. Lawrence River Valley. More than 140,000 fishes of...

This is the data archive for the publication Ungulate Migrations of the Western United States, Volume 5 and includes the collection of GIS map files that are mapped and described in the report. These map files are meant to provide a common spatial representation of the mapped migrations and seasonal ranges. This data release provides the means for ungulate migrations to be mapped and...
