Concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and associated chemicals in avian tissues collected along the Snow Creek and Choccolocco Creek riparian corridors downstream of the former PCB manufacturing facility, and a reference site, near Anniston, Concentrations of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and associated chemicals in avian tissues collected along the Snow Creek and Choccolocco Creek riparian corridors downstream of the former PCB manufacturing facility, and a reference site, near Anniston,
These data are comprised of measured concentrations of PCBs, polychlorinate dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs), polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), Pb, and Hg, and percent lipid and moisture, in avian tissue samples (egg contents, nestlings, egg shells) collected from the Snow Creek and Choccolocco Creek watersheds downstream of the former PCB facility in Anniston, Alabama, USA. The nearby...
Outputs and code for a mallard migration and energetics model incorporating oil spill effects Outputs and code for a mallard migration and energetics model incorporating oil spill effects
This data release contains a set of data files and scripts related to simulating winter and spring energetics and migration of mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) originating in northern Arkansas, USA as they travel to breeding areas in the Prairie Pothole Region. The simulation results are then re-simulated with the addition of hypothetical oil spills on the wintering ground. Key data files...
DNA amplicon sequences from periphyton collected in dry RNA-preserving salts and homogenized once or multiple times DNA amplicon sequences from periphyton collected in dry RNA-preserving salts and homogenized once or multiple times
Periphyton samples were collected at Sequoia National Park (Three Rivers, California) and preserved in RNA-preserving salts mixed with river water. Samples were homogenized one, two, three, or four times for 2 minutes each, to test efficacy of different degrees of homogenization. DNA from each homogenate was extracted using the AllPrep PowerFecal Pro DNA/RNA kit (Qiagen), and the DNA...
Mark recapture data for loggerhead sea turtles in St. Joseph Bay, FL from 2011-2024 Mark recapture data for loggerhead sea turtles in St. Joseph Bay, FL from 2011-2024
This dataset includes information on total loggerhead sea turtle captures, recaptures, and their size ranges upon capture by year (2011–2024) in St. Joseph Bay, FL.
MODFLOW-6 groundwater flow model and model scenarios of the Ogallala and Arikaree aquifers, Rosebud Sioux Tribe national areas, South Dakota MODFLOW-6 groundwater flow model and model scenarios of the Ogallala and Arikaree aquifers, Rosebud Sioux Tribe national areas, South Dakota
The Ogallala and Arikaree aquifers are important water resources for the Rosebud Sioux Tribe and are used extensively for irrigation and domestic water supplies. Drought or increased withdrawals from the Ogallala and Arikaree aquifers in the Rosebud Sioux Tribal lands potentially affect water levels in these aquifers. MODFLOW-6 (version 6.6.0) groundwater flow models of the Ogallala and...
Thermogravimetric Analysis of rock samples from the Escanaba Trough (Gorda Ridge) Thermogravimetric Analysis of rock samples from the Escanaba Trough (Gorda Ridge)
This data release contains data collected using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) of rock samples collected from the Escanaba Trough hydrothermal vent field, Gorda Ridge, in the northeast Pacific Ocean. These data were collected in 2022 on expedition TN403 (USGS Field Activity 2022-621-FA). Samples were taken to the USGS Pacific Coastal Marine Science Center for subsampling before being...
Data release of surface water storage time series (2016-2023) Data release of surface water storage time series (2016-2023)
Globally, many waterbodies and floodplains have been lost, degraded, or are at risk for further loss, which may have unintended consequences for rivers, including exacerbating flood and drought conditions. We explored how including surface water storage time series in deep learning models influences our ability to predict river discharge. We utilized Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 algorithms...
Telemetry data of desert kit foxes near solar facilities in southern California, 2022-2025 Telemetry data of desert kit foxes near solar facilities in southern California, 2022-2025
We captured and collared desert kit foxes in three populations near solar facilities in the Sonoran and Mojave Deserts, California, between November 2022 and January 2023 and in January 2024. This dataset includes telemetry records collected from 21 collared foxes from November 2022 to January 2025. We used these data to estimate home-range sizes for each fox and to evaluate habitat use...
Global AgWet Mask for SSEBop ET Model Version 7 Global AgWet Mask for SSEBop ET Model Version 7
The AgWet (Agriculture Wetland) mask is a specialized land‑cover dataset developed to enhance wet-bulb boundary parameterization in Version 7 of the SSEBop evapotranspiration model (operational Simplified Surface Energy Balance), particularly improving the Forcing and Normalizing Operation (FANO) algorithm over wet-bare surfaces. In sparsely vegetated surfaces, low NDVI (Normalized...
Supporting documentation for predicting groundwater hydrochemical facies in three dimensions across the conterminous United States with random forest classification Supporting documentation for predicting groundwater hydrochemical facies in three dimensions across the conterminous United States with random forest classification
This data release provides workflow documentation and spatial predictions of groundwater hydrochemical facies (HCFs) across the conterminous United States at multiple depths. Predictions were generated using a Random Forest Classification model trained on a comprehensive groundwater chemistry dataset (>150,000 sites). Samples were classified based on major ion composition into one of six...
Sediment Data From Cores Collected in 2025 at Midnight Pass, Florida Sediment Data From Cores Collected in 2025 at Midnight Pass, Florida
In June 2025, scientists from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) conducted sediment core sampling at Midnight Pass, an inlet between Siesta Key and Casey Key, Florida. This inlet was closed by mechanical action in 1983 and reopened by the passage of hurricanes Helene and Milton in 2024, reconnecting Little Sarasota Bay to the Gulf...
MODFLOW 6 groundwater flow models and supporting data for evaluation of stream capture related to groundwater pumping, middle Humboldt River Basin, Nevada MODFLOW 6 groundwater flow models and supporting data for evaluation of stream capture related to groundwater pumping, middle Humboldt River Basin, Nevada
A calibrated numerical groundwater flow model was developed for the middle Humboldt River Basin (MHRB), Nevada, to estimate stream capture from groundwater pumping over time. Stream capture was estimated for water years (WY) 1961–2015 with pumping from that period, and the model was then used to predict future stream capture based on constant non-mining pumping rates in WY 2015. The...
