A three-dimensional groundwater flow model of the Central Valley in California was developed to aid water managers in understanding how water moves through the aquifer system, to predict water-supply scenarios, and to address issues related to subsidence. The USGS California Water Science Center made a detailed assessment of groundwater availability of the Central Valley aquifer system...

The dataset is composed of two data tables containing information from boat electrofishing surveys conducted during 2021, 2023, and 2024 in sections of the Mohawk River where it runs separately from the New York State Canal System (i.e., is not canalized). The first table contains fish collection data and the second table contains information on the sampled reaches.

This metadata record contains one table and one shapefile with results from field sampling at locations of groundwater discharge (seeps) identified by autonomous boat survey at the Lower Darby Creek Area (LDCA) Superfund Site, near Folcroft, Pennsylvania, in 2024. Included in the dataset are (1) PFAS concentrations, volatile organic compound (VOC) concentrations, cations/trace metals...

This dataset, collected and prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS - SPCMSC), includes sea turtle nesting decision point locations and cross-shore beach profiles at those locations. The data were collected by a person walking with a survey backpack equipped with a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver and GPS antenna. The surveys...

In Louisiana, the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) identifies, prepares, and funds coastal wetland restoration projects. In the Evaluation Report to Congress to be submitted in 2024, geospatially driven visualizations are required to provide conceptual understanding of funded project sizes and locations as they pertain to the geographical region in...

Degradation of water quality from nutrient pollution continues to be a challenge for water resource managers. The development of effective management strategies begins with tools that facilitate an understanding of nutrient sources and transport. SPARROW (SPAtially Referenced Regression On Watershed attributes) is a spatially explicit model platform that correlates water-quality...

This is a dataset summarizing filtering criteria and rapid risk assessments for ~25,000 species undertaken during a data-driven horizon scan of imported fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. The files represented in this dataset are the following: 1) 'species_filtering_metadata_table.xlsx' is the tabular summary of all intake list species names and the reason for inclusion...

Since its formation, the Colorado River Basin Salinity Control Forum and its partners have completed a substantial amount of work in an ongoing effort to reduce salinity concentrations and loads in the Colorado River. These efforts and related monitoring have generated a large volume of data and information. This data release includes geospatial datasets that provide information on...

For more than a half million years, dense vein calcite has been precipitating in Devils Hole, located about 115 km northwest of Las Vegas, Nevada. This process also occurs in Devils Hole Cave 2, which is hydrologically connected and situated about 200 meters north of the original Devils Hole cave. Calcite has been precipitating in this natural laboratory in oxygen isotopic equilibrium at...

We estimated the effect of microhabitat and microclimatic factors on occupancy, abundance and reproduction of four species of Eleutherodactylus frogs (E. wightmanae, E. brittoni, E. antillensis, E. coqui). Data consist of presence-non/presence data (binary), and physical (abiotic) and habitat (biotic) covariates collected at each of 48 survey stations (2017) and 35 (2018) along two...

Invasive predators pose a substantial threat to global biodiversity. Native prey species frequently exhibit naïveté to the cues of invasive predators, and this phenomenon may contribute to the disproportionate impact of invasive predators on prey populations. However, not all species exhibit naïveté, which has led to the generation of many hypotheses to explain patterns in prey responses...

This data release includes whole rock (WR) and portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) geochemical data collected from the eastern Adirondack Mountains, NY. Whole rock geochemistry data were analyzed at Bureau Veritas Commodities Canada Ltd. Laboratories in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Data were collected using a Thermo Niton portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer. Rock...
