All Data

This data release contains the boundaries of assessment units, assessment input data, and resulting fact sheet data tables for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources of the Zagros Fold Belt Province. The assessment unit is the fundamental unit used in the National and Global Oil and Gas Assessment Project for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources. The...

This dataset comprises in situ images of benthic algae collected by an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) in Lake Michigan during August and September 2020. The images were annotated, or labeled, to identify specific features for use in machine learning and algorithm development, specifically to train and validate an algorithm for the automated identification and assessment of submerged...

The 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill injured mesophotic and deep-sea environments over a vast area. In order to restore the mesophotic and deep-sea coral species impacted by the spill, information on fundamental ecosystem processes such as reproduction is needed. During expeditions in 2021 and 2022, fragments of the mesophotic octocoral Swiftia exserta were collected from the northern...

This data release presents organic geochemical data collected from sediments within the Escanaba Trough, a sedimented hydrothermal spreading center within the U.S. EEZ off the coast of Northern CA which contains marine minerals (USGS Field Activity 2022-621-FA). The data includes total organic carbon and total nitrogen content, stable and radioisotopes, compound specific biomarker data...

This data release contains information derived from fishing efforts and sampled fish from the nearshore Beaufort Sea, Alaska, 2021-2023, as part of a study investigating red-throated loon productivity and diet. The datasets include six tables comprising 1) catch per unit effort (CPUE) data, 2) field-measured lengths of fish (mm), 3) the energy density (kJ/g) and whole-body energy (kJ) of...

This data release contains the model inputs, outputs, and source code (written in R) for a redeveloped PRObability of Streamflow PERmanence (PROSPER) model (version 2.1) that had previously been developed for the Pacific Northwest Region (PROSPER_PNW_2), and a raster data set which shows where influential predictor values were outside the range of calibration data. The PROSPER-PNW...

This digital database release contains elevation surfaces on 24 surfaces representing the tops of geological formations in the Denver Basin. These surfaces were exported as raster data from Leapfrog software, in which the model was constructed. Inputs to the model include well top data compiled from state agencies, formation contacts extracted from the Stage Geological Map Compilation...

In 2020, Cascade Drilling, contracted by Rizzo International, Inc., drilled and constructed corehole CFPP-B01 (USGS Site 433814113031801) for stratigraphic framework analysis. The corehole is located along the western boundary of the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) just south of State Highway 33 in southeastern Idaho. Corehole CFPP-B01 was continuously cored from approximately 4 to 1538...

Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding may have utility in biodiversity surveys of marine environments, particularly for small, rare, or cryptic taxa that are more difficult to study using traditional methods (e.g., trawling and visual surveys). For this study, we used an eDNA metabarcoding approach to characterize biodiversity in the above-seafloor water column across three West Coast...

We compared pollinator diversity derived from environmental DNA (eDNA) extracted from flowers and DNA extracted from pulverized bulk samples of insects collected from vane traps deployed at the same sites. We used three metabarcoding primers, two of which target arthropods generally (COI-Jusino and 16S-Marquina) and one that targets bumblebees (Bombus spp., COI-Milam). Across methods, we...

Contained within this data release are the raw geochemical and isotopic data collected as part of the publication "Protracted hydrothermal alteration of the Burgundy alkalic porphyry prospect determined by in situ U-Pb and Rb-Sr petrochronology, northwestern British Columbia, Canada."

Contained within this data release are the raw geochemical and isotopic data collected from analyzed zircon and monazite crystals as part of the Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems publication "Timing of dike and sill emplacement in the inner aureole of the Alta stock, Utah determined by zircon and monazite petrochronology." Table 1 contains all of the monazite geochemical data while...
