This code repo contains three scripts used in the associated manuscript to run the analyses (01_model_prob_flight.r; 02_model_altitude_selection.r) and the simulation used to make predictions (03_simulate_prob_fly_per_altitude.r). The analysis serves to evaluate conditions that affect 1) whether geese are in flight vs. resting on the water, 2) what altitude is selected by flying geese...

This data release preserves an extensive archive of 15,475 historical (1918–2020) geophysical logs from wells across Texas, including over 10,000 collected during various studies and more than 2,000 donated records. The original hard-copy logs are housed at the U.S. Geological Survey Oklahoma-Texas Water Science Center (OTWSC) in Austin, Texas. Digitized materials are provided as zipped...

Data describe a designed environmental DNA (eDNA) experiment for the estimation of eDNA degradation rates for the mucket (Actinonaias ligamentina) from water samples collected in the laboratory. Samples were collected from experiments performed from November 01, 2019 to November 15, 2019 at the USGS Columbia Environmental Research Center, Missouri

This data release provides water-quality data collected and analyzed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) during 1972 through 2020. This data release includes a discrete water-quality concentration dataset (total dissolved solids, chloride, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, nitrate plus nitrite, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, orthophosphate...

The U.S. Geological Survey collected ground gravity data as part of a helicopter reconnaissance campaign of the Democrat Creek alkaline complex and Deer Peak quadrangle in the Wet Mountains, Colorado. A total of 60 measurements were collected using a LaCoste and Romberg gravity meter. High accuracy geographic coordinates and elevations were collected using a survey grade Leica GS16...

Thirty-two organic-rich samples from the lower and upper shale members of the Devonian–Mississippian Bakken Formation were collected from eight cores across the Williston Basin, USA, at depths (~7,575–11,330 ft) representing immature through post peak oil/early condensate thermal maturity conditions. Reflectance results were correlated to programmed temperature pyrolysis parameters...

This dataset contains Landsat-derived images of Evaporative Fraction (ETf), Reference Evapotranspiration (ETo), and Actual Evapotranspiration (ETa) over a portion of California’s Central Valley for 15 dates in 2016. Each of the 15 images used in this study had three corresponding Tif files representing ETf, ETo, and ETa. Data used in this project was sourced from Landsat 8 Surface...

The Louisiana State Legislature created the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) in order to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. The wetland restoration plans developed pursuant to these acts specifically require an evaluation of the effectiveness of each coastal wetlands restoration project in achieving long-term solutions to...

This data release contains computed tomography (CT) scans, photographs, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) scans, geochemical data, X-ray diffractograms (XRD), and gamma-ray bulk density of push cores and sediment subsamples from those cores collected in 2018 and 2019 from Loki’s and Favne Vent Fields, Mohns Ridge, part of the Arctic Mid-Atlantic Ridge. For the geochemical section of the release...

The U.S. Geological Survey monitors water surface flow reversals, commercial vessel traffic, and temperature and specific conductance in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Electric Dispersal Barrier System, EDBS, on the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal, Chicago, Illinois. This data release is the 2018 water year summary of the EDBS monitoring data. Water surface flow reversals at the EDBS...

In October 2012, Hurricane Sandy made landfall in the Northeastern U.S., affecting ecosystems and communities of 12 states. In response, the National Fish and Wildlife Federation (NFWF) and the U.S. Department of Interior (DOI) implemented the Hurricane Sandy Coastal Resiliency Program, which funded various projects designed to reduce future impacts of coastal hazards. These projects...

This data release provides a generalized lithology look-up table for the lithogeochemical classification of Vermont's bedrock geologic map units. The table is defined from the mapped bedrock geologic units published by Ratcliffe and others (2011) and the generalized lithology of rock group A and rock group B for lithogeochemical classification as defined by Robinson and Kapo (2003). The...
