Nitrogen, phosphorus, and suspended-sediment loads and trends measured at the Chesapeake Bay River Input Monitoring stations: Water years 1985-2021 Nitrogen, phosphorus, and suspended-sediment loads and trends measured at the Chesapeake Bay River Input Monitoring stations: Water years 1985-2021
Nitrogen, phosphorus, and suspended-sediment loads, and changes in loads, in major rivers across the Chesapeake Bay watershed have been calculated using monitoring data from the Chesapeake Bay River Input Monitoring (RIM) Network stations for the period 1985 through 2021. Nutrient and suspended-sediment loads and changes in loads were determined by applying a weighted regression approach...
RestoreNet subplot data for 21 sites within major dryland ecoregions throughout the southwestern United States, 2018 - 2021 RestoreNet subplot data for 21 sites within major dryland ecoregions throughout the southwestern United States, 2018 - 2021
These data were compiled for a networked field-trial restoration experiment (RestoreNet) that spans the southwestern US, including 21 distributed field sites. The objective of our study was to understand the environmental factors and restoration practices (including seed mixes and soil manipulation) that increase plant establishment and survival to ultimate improve restoration outcomes...
Webb and Rosenberry, 2020, MODFLOW 2005 and MODPATH 5 model data sets used to evaluate seepage-meter efficiency in high-permeability settings Webb and Rosenberry, 2020, MODFLOW 2005 and MODPATH 5 model data sets used to evaluate seepage-meter efficiency in high-permeability settings
A three-dimensional finite-difference model, MODFLOW-2005 (version 1.12.00), was developed to better understand how Seepage Meter efficiency changes when installed in sediments with wide range of conductivities. The hypothesis is that coarser sediments will allow a greater portion of upward-flow to flow around the meter instead of through it. The hypothetical model simulates upward flow...
Zircon U-Pb data for ash-fall tuffs and sandstones of the Cenozoic Amargosa Valley and Bat Mountain Formations exposed on Bat Mountain, southern Funeral Mountains, California, USA Zircon U-Pb data for ash-fall tuffs and sandstones of the Cenozoic Amargosa Valley and Bat Mountain Formations exposed on Bat Mountain, southern Funeral Mountains, California, USA
This document includes two suites of zircon U-Pb data that establish a detailed chronostratigraphy for Cenozoic strata exposed on Bat Mountain of the southern Funeral Mountains, California, USA. The first suite of data includes detrital zircon U-Pb age distributions that characterize the maximum depositional age and provenance of five sandstone samples from the Oligocene-Miocene Amargosa...
Marginal increment and age data from fin rays of endangered suckers Marginal increment and age data from fin rays of endangered suckers
Data included in this data set are from suckers collected in Hagelstein Pond from 2014 through 2021. Data were collected on age, marginal increment, and marginal increment ratios from fin rays, and length of suckers captured during monthly sampling events. There are two levels of data. Fin ray data contains 409 records and the data file is 31 KB, repeat data contains 58 records and the...
Hydrodynamic Data for a Near-Shore Area of the Laguna Madre near South Padre Island, Texas, August 2021 to April 2022 Hydrodynamic Data for a Near-Shore Area of the Laguna Madre near South Padre Island, Texas, August 2021 to April 2022
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the City of South Padre Island, Texas, collected base line hydrodynamic (tidal water level and current velocity) data for a near-shore area of the Laguna Madre near South Padre Island from August 18, 2021, to April 27, 2022. The data included in this data release are presented in a comma-separated values (csv) file format.
Optimal horseshoe crab harvest policies via approximate dynamic programming Optimal horseshoe crab harvest policies via approximate dynamic programming
Approximate Dynamic Programming relies on forward simulation of the system, so two population projection models are used, one for crabs and one for red knots. The two models are linked: HSC abundance is a predictor variable in the REKN model. Other useful outputs are produced as well, such as predictions of future harvest.
Geographic Boundaries Of Planetary Geologic Maps Geographic Boundaries Of Planetary Geologic Maps
A polygon layer of regions of multiple planetary bodies beyond Earth that are covered by proposed or published planetary geologic maps published by the USGS.
Geospatial characterization of salt marshes in Chesapeake Bay Geospatial characterization of salt marshes in Chesapeake Bay
This data release contains coastal wetland synthesis products for Chesapeake Bay. Metrics for resiliency, including unvegetated to vegetated ratio (UVVR), marsh elevation, and tidal range are calculated for smaller units delineated from a digital elevation model, providing the spatial variability of physical factors that influence wetland health. The U.S. Geological Survey has been...
Water quality measurements in off-channel water bodies of the Willamette River near Albany and Keizer, OR (2017 and 2019) Water quality measurements in off-channel water bodies of the Willamette River near Albany and Keizer, OR (2017 and 2019)
The tabular data sets and associated maps in this data release represent water-quality data that were collected between April and November of 2017 and between July and November of 2019 to describe baseline conditions prior to or sometimes following treatments using herbicides or other methods to reduce the biomass of non-native water primrose (Ludwigia) within off-channel water bodies of...
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Tracking Data for Steller's Eiders (Polysticta stelleri) U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Tracking Data for Steller's Eiders (Polysticta stelleri)
This data release includes 2 child items with tracking data for Steller's Eider, a species of seaduck that breeds throughout the circumpolar Arctic and spends the winter in coastal areas of western and southwestern Alaska. The Alaska-breeding population is listed as threatened under provisions of the Endangered Species Act. Child Item 1: "U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Argos Satellite...
Database for the Geologic Map of Three Sisters Volcanic Cluster, Cascade Range, Oregon Database for the Geologic Map of Three Sisters Volcanic Cluster, Cascade Range, Oregon
A database of geologic map of Three Sisters Volcanic Cluster as described in the original abstract: The geologic map represents part of a late Quaternary volcanic field within which scores of eruptions have taken place over the last 50,000 years, some as recently as ~1,500 years ago. No rocks of early Pleistocene (or greater) age crop out within the map area, although volcanic and...
