Data Releases

This data release provides digital flight-line and gridded data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over a part of west central Utah. The survey was acquired as part of the UGSS Earth Mapping Resource Initiative (Earth MRI) to improve our understanding of the fundamental geologic framework of the region with applications to evaluating natural resources and...

Salt marshes provide a range of ecosystem services, including storm protection, recreation, and commercial fishery habitat provision. The National Park Service (NPS) aims to preserve and protect salt marshes in order to achieve multiple objectives which address their mission: to preserve unimpaired the natural and cultural resources and values of their publicly held lands. Ongoing...

The CZU Lightning Complex Wildfire burned 86,500 acres of forested coastal watersheds in the Santa Cruz Mountains, CA, from August 16 to September 22, 2020. Ash, soil, and stream sediment were collected and characterized as soon as sites could be safely accessed to quantify potential environmental and public hazards from wildfire-related potentially toxic metals and polycyclic aromatic

Ecological models facilitate evaluation of alternative approaches to restore the Greater Everglades ecosystem. However, the provision of useful and accessible models is a challenge because there is often a disconnect between model output and its use by decision makers. Joint Ecosystem Modeling (JEM) meets this challenge by providing ecological model output tailored to management...

Dataset of common themes that arose from semi-structured interviews with members of REstoration, COordination, and VERification (RECOVER), an interdisciplinary group of agencies, tribes, and institutions that conduct scientific evaluations and assessments to improve the implementation of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP). The interviews centered on the ability and...

Vegetation cover and surface elevation data were collected in restored marshes at the J.D. Murphree Wildlife Management Area in Texas, USA. Data were collected in late April and early May of 2024. Data were collected in 0.25 m² plots strategically placed along habitat transition zones between cover classes. Cover classes, listed from lowest to highest mean surface elevation, included...

We mapped cheatgrass at different scales in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem using 10-m Sentinel-2 imagery, 3-m PlanetScope, and 10-cm Unoccupied Aerial Systems (UAS) imagery. We compared these maps to field-collected data to address 1) variation in seasonal phenological signals of native and cheatgrass patches, 2) the influence of scale on detectability and map accuracy across our...

This data release contains information on four sediment cores that were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey in Conconully Reservoir, Okanogan County, Washington, in June 2022 and October 2023. Data include the location each sediment core was collected, descriptions of the sediment profile of two of the cores (i.e., texture, color, structure, and visible constituents), photographs of...

This dataset provides high spatial resolution (30 m) raster products of Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) for the Northeastern United States over the past two decades (2000–2020). The product is derived from Landsat 5–8 using a particle composition-adaptive SPM retrieval algorithm (Teng et al., 2025) and is designed to resolve fine-scale coastal sediment dynamics that are not well...

These data are forest stand structure observations for high elevation red spruce and northern hardwood forest communities in the central Appalachians of Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia associated with known Virginia northern flying squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus fuscus) presence points and user generated random points. Data were extracted from U.S. Forest Service TreeMap spatial model...

Data from high frequency sampling of multiple carbon forms were collected in a predominately rain-fed watershed in Southeast Alaska during the main run-off season (May-October 2021). The dataset includes hourly measurements of stream temperature, specific conductivity, turbidity, and fluorescent dissolved organic matter, point samples of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), alkalinity...

In this dataset, there are six csv files that provide the raw fish behavior telemetry data and a single csv file that provides the processed velocity data.
