All Data

This data release provides location information and lithologic intervals for boreholes compiled by the USGS between 2016 and 2020 for use during subsurface geologic mapping of the lower Colorado River corridor. The data provided include a spreadsheet of borehole information, that contains the well name, the information source, and positional information regarding the well location. A...

This data release contains in situ carbon and oxygen isotope analyses of calcite and dolomite collected via secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), as well as major and trace element geochemical data, bulk mineral carbon and oxygen isotope data, and whole rock geochemistry for the samples included in this study. Also included are images from analyzed thin sections that show the sample...

Carolina northern flying squirrel presence and pseudo-absence points for eight high elevation North Carolina, Tennesse, and Virginia red spruce-Fraser fir forests. Data includes corresponding habitat variables (distance to spruce-fir forest, northern red oak forest, northern hardwood forest, open areas) and topographic variables (elevation, topographic exposure index, aspect), latitude...

This product is a georectified and tonally balanced mosaic of aerial photographs collected in 1930 by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation along a portion of the floodplain of the Colorado River in Palo Verde Valley, Arizona and California. This dataset is a primary resource for the development of a surficial geologic map showing the floodplain and river channel characteristics along the...

Rare earth elements are critical mineral commodities typically extracted together as a group of 15 elements (lanthanides plus yttrium) from either 1) hard rock ores or 2) ion-adsorption clay deposits. The locations of hard rock mines targeting carbonatite and peralkaline magmatic rare earth deposits are well constrained and typically mined using conventional open-pit or underground...

Sulfur minerals, including sulfates (barite, celestine) and sulfides (pyrite, galena, chalcopyrite) are common throughout the Mountain Pass carbonatite. Changes in the sulfur isotope chemistry of sulfate and sulfide minerals record changes in temperature and oxygen fugacity in the system from which they precipitate, and early primary sulfate and/or sulfide minerals may record the primary...

This data release includes 3 child items with tracking data for caribou, a terrestrial mammal that ranges between the Alaska and Canada. Child Item 1: "GPS Tracking Data for Caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) from the Denali Herd, Alaska, 2010-2018" Child Item 2: "GPS Tracking Data for Caribou (Rangifer tarandus granti) from the Fortymile Herd, Alaska, 1998-1999" Child Item 3: "GPS...

Agricultural land use estimates are vital to understanding agricultural production, economic contributions, and water demands. A method to estimate spatially and temporally distributed agricultural land use was developed for California. Pesticide application records were processed to develop annual statewide estimates of agricultural land use at approximately 1-square mile resolution...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation, Office of Water Resources, developed regional regression equations for estimating selected low-flow statistics in Massachusetts. This data release contains the datasets used in the regression analyses for the regional low-flow equations for the mainland area of...

This release presents hi-resolution structure-from-motion (SfM) habitat imagery suitable for GIS. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has developed SfM to become a low-cost technique for coastal change assessments. The software uses a combination of camera locations and ground control points to produce digital surface models (DSMs) and orthorectified imagery products. SfM products include...

Since 1975, annual water use for Louisiana has been published on a 5-year basis and is used for a variety of purposes. As the Sparta aquifer is a heavily used aquifer, is the sole source of groundwater for many parishes in Louisiana, and recent withdrawals have exceeded the Sparta’s natural recharge, a more frequent compilation of water usage for the Sparta aquifer in Louisiana is needed...
