Data for improved understanding of the susceptibility of Lake Superior to threats from groundwater contamination Data for improved understanding of the susceptibility of Lake Superior to threats from groundwater contamination

This data release contains a data compilation and analysis of the hydrogeology in the U.S. portion of the Lake Superior watershed, for the purpose of providing background data for future study and modeling of groundwater and contaminant movement in the watershed. The data support an analysis of groundwater contributions to the water budget of Lake Superior and provide hydrogeologic...

Reflectance data from figures in: Using X-ray spectrum of carbon in electron microprobe analysis to determine thermal maturity of organic matter in mudstones Reflectance data from figures in: Using X-ray spectrum of carbon in electron microprobe analysis to determine thermal maturity of organic matter in mudstones

Conventional methods of assessing organic matter (OM) thermal maturity have limitations and often fail to reflect the geochemical heterogeneity between individual organic phases in mudstone samples. Vitrinite and solid bitumen reflectance, for example, is often measured to estimate OM thermal maturity but is restricted to specific types of OM. Alternative methods deserve exploration...

Assessing risk for westward expansion of zebra mussels to guide EDRR strategies project Assessing risk for westward expansion of zebra mussels to guide EDRR strategies project

Zebra mussels are representative of nonindigenous aquatic species (NAS) with devastating economic, recreational, and environmental impacts that are already under watch as a problematic species across the U.S. and in Texas. Targeting dispersal pathways is likely the most efficient means of controlling their spread further west. The movement of recreational watercraft is one of the main...

Bayesian Composition Sampling Bayesian Composition Sampling

R Code to Run Composition Sampling for Cook et al. 2023 The aim of this software is to perform composition sampling on simulated disease observation data. Composition sampling is a valuable approach for statistical inference in data limited systems. This software implements composition sampling on simulated chronic wasting disease surveillance data in white-tailed deer in Michigan, U.S...

Measurements of surface water quality and carbon concentrations (2022-2023) in canals of Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve, Louisiana Measurements of surface water quality and carbon concentrations (2022-2023) in canals of Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve, Louisiana

This dataset contains measurements of water quality parameters (temperature, salinity, specific conductance, dissolved oxygen, and pH) and concentrations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), and particulate organic carbon (POC) in canals of Jean Lafitte National Historical Park and Preserve (hereafter, the Park) during wet and dry seasons in 2022 and 2023...

This data release is the update of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) - ScienceBase data release Bera (2023), with the processed data for the period October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2022. This data release (DR) describes the watershed data management (WDM) database WBDR22.WDM. The precipitation data are collected from a tipping-bucket rain-gage network and the hydrologic data (stage...

Concentrations of 6PPD and 6PPD-Quinone in a United States reconnaissance of stormwater, surface water, and groundwater, 2018-24 Concentrations of 6PPD and 6PPD-Quinone in a United States reconnaissance of stormwater, surface water, and groundwater, 2018-24

From 2018 to 2024 surface waters (fresh and brackish), groundwater, and stormwater (runoff, re-use) samples were collected from sites with varying landuse (agricultural, forested, and urban) and streamflow conditions and analyzed at the Organic Geochemistry Research Laboratory in Lawrence, Kansas for the tire antioxidant 6PPD (6-p-phenylenediamine; N-(1,3-Dimethylbutyl)-N’-phenyl-p
