Plant cover data collected on roadsides treated with herbicide and bioherbicide in SW Idaho Plant cover data collected on roadsides treated with herbicide and bioherbicide in SW Idaho
The exotic grass-fire cycle is degrading semiarid rangelands, such as the vast areas of shrub-steppe in North America now invaded by fire-promoting cheatgrass. Chemical- or bio-herbicides are sprayed onto soils to inhibit the invaders, but information on chemical- or bio-herbicide effects on plant communities is limited. We asked how the plant community responded to the bioherbicide...
Plant cover, density, and growth measurements from burned and unburned plots treated with indaziflam four years after the Soda fire Plant cover, density, and growth measurements from burned and unburned plots treated with indaziflam four years after the Soda fire
Protection of intact habitat from the spread of invasive plants is a global priority, especially where the invaders alter wildfire occurrence. Invasion of perennial sagebrush-steppe ecosystems by cheatgrass and other fire-promoting exotic annual grasses (EAGs) is one of the most notorious examples of this problem. Protection and expansion of the remaining intact "core" habitat sagebrush...
Models of Future Suitable Habitat for Joshua Trees (Yucca brevifolia, Yucca jaegeriana) in the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts Based on High Resolution Distribution Data Models of Future Suitable Habitat for Joshua Trees (Yucca brevifolia, Yucca jaegeriana) in the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts Based on High Resolution Distribution Data
Joshua trees (Yucca brevifolia, Y. jaegeriana) are iconic, foundational species of the Mojave and Sonoran Deserts in North America. Due to their ecosystem importance, long generation times, and low resilience to disturbance, these hybridizing sister species are increasingly the focus of conservation efforts. Predicting Joshua tree responses to future climate, along with the extent of...
USGS NWHC Diagnostic Case Data to retrospectively evaluate NWHC’s diagnosis likelihoods for different kinds of cases collected in the United States submitted to the NWHC from January 1st, 2000 to December 31st, 202 USGS NWHC Diagnostic Case Data to retrospectively evaluate NWHC’s diagnosis likelihoods for different kinds of cases collected in the United States submitted to the NWHC from January 1st, 2000 to December 31st, 202
Diagnostic case-level data recorded by the USGS National Wildlife Health Center (NWHC) in their Laboratory Information Management system (LIMs) and wildlife health information sharing partnership event reporting system (WHISPers). The LIMs database tracks carcass and tissue submissions to the NWHC laboratories, test results, and ultimate cause of death as determined through forensic...
Intertidal biofilm remote sensing paired spectra-biofilm training and validation data, South San Francisco Bay Intertidal biofilm remote sensing paired spectra-biofilm training and validation data, South San Francisco Bay
Intertidal microbial biofilms, or microphytobenthos, support estuarine biogeochemical cycling, the physical stability of mudflats, and food webs, particularly those of migratory shorebirds. Photosynthetic biofilms dominated by diatoms, cyanobacteria and chlorophytes represent a significant fraction of biofilm biomass and contain pigments that can be detected with remote sensing. These...
Pd Surveillance Sample Storage-Extraction Experiment Data Release Pd Surveillance Sample Storage-Extraction Experiment Data Release
Storage-Extraction_Experiment.csv: These data include the qPCR results (Ct values and copy numbers) of DNA extracted from swab samples inoculated with Pd conidia (1,000, 10,000, or 100,000 conidia), stored at various temperatures (ambient temperature, 4°C, or -20°C), with or without RNAlater® preservative, for various durations (3 days, 1 month, or 3 months), and extracted with either a...
Sediment core radioisotope measurements in coastal wetlands along the Chesapeake Bay Sediment core radioisotope measurements in coastal wetlands along the Chesapeake Bay
Data shows radioisotope measurements (Pb-210 and Cs-137) of sediment cores from four coastal wetlands along the Chesapeake Bay (one core from each site). Cores were sectioned every 1-2 cm depth.
Historical simulated snowpack for the Willow Creek and Big Thompson, Colorado watersheds and vicinity, water years 1994-2023 Historical simulated snowpack for the Willow Creek and Big Thompson, Colorado watersheds and vicinity, water years 1994-2023
This data release contains historical SnowModel outputs for the Willow Creek and Big Thompson, CO watersheds and surrounding area. Simulated outputs were produced on a 30 meter (m) geospatial grid and forced using meteorology from the National Land Data Assimilation System (NLDAS-2). These simulations used daily snow water equivalent (SWE) time-series from 13 National Resources...
Data from Migratory Bird Aerial Surveys and Habitat, Nest Success, and Genetic Samples from Spectacled Eiders (Somateria fischeri) on the Indigirka River Delta, Russia Data from Migratory Bird Aerial Surveys and Habitat, Nest Success, and Genetic Samples from Spectacled Eiders (Somateria fischeri) on the Indigirka River Delta, Russia
This data release contains five spreadsheets of information from aerial surveys of the Indigirka River Delta, Russia, in June of 1993 and 1994, data on habitats where nests of Spectacled Eiders (Somateria fischeri) and other species of waterfowl were observed from 1993 to 1995, and genotypic data from feathers collected from eider nests to determine inter-annual rates of return by...
Synthetic Elevation Checkpoints, North Carolina Synthetic Elevation Checkpoints, North Carolina
These geospatial datasets describe positions, elevations, and uncertainties for synthetic elevation checkpoints generated across the developed coastline of North Carolina. Two datasets are provided as point shapefiles and American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) tables, and each contains synthetic checkpoints generated using a time series (1996-2018) of digital...
Low-altitude aerial imagery and photogrammetry products from unmanned aerial systems (UAS) flight after the 2018 flood over historic Ellicott City, Maryland Low-altitude aerial imagery and photogrammetry products from unmanned aerial systems (UAS) flight after the 2018 flood over historic Ellicott City, Maryland
Digital imagery was obtained by Elevated Media Concepts LLC from small unmanned aerial systems (UAS), over Historic Ellicott City on June 18, 2018 after major flooding events. The imagery was collected to document and monitor effects of flooding, including property damage and erosion in Ellicott City, Maryland. A DJI Inspire 2 quadcopter with camera model FC6520 and a DJI Mavic Pro...
