Data Releases
The data collected and the techniques used by USGS scientists should conform to or reference national and international standards and protocols if they exist and when they are relevant and appropriate. For datasets of a given type, and if national or international metadata standards exist, the data are indexed with metadata that facilitates access and integration.

Stable carbon (C13) and nitrogen (N15) isotopic values of American alligators within the Florida Everglades (2013-2020) Stable carbon (C13) and nitrogen (N15) isotopic values of American alligators within the Florida Everglades (2013-2020)
This dataset contains morphometric and isotopic data for American alligators (Alligator mississippiensis) that were sampled from within four freshwater (FW) wetlands and one estuarine (EST) wetland within the Greater Everglades ecosystem. Due to their compartmentalization and varied habitat and water regimes, there were multiple sampling sites within two of the FW wetlands. The five...
Data for the evaluation of the acute toxicity of 4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (TFM) to Burbot (Lota lota) Data for the evaluation of the acute toxicity of 4-nitro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenol (TFM) to Burbot (Lota lota)
The dataset provides access to all data used in the interpretation of results for the study including dose response curves from toxicity tests, predicted minimum lethal concentration data, water quality data, and mortality data.
Summary from posterior distributions of multistate movement model for silver carp in the upper Mississippi River from 2014 to 2021 Summary from posterior distributions of multistate movement model for silver carp in the upper Mississippi River from 2014 to 2021
This data contains the mean and standard deviations for movement rates for silver carp in the upper Mississippi River 2014 and 2021. The data are summaries of the posterior distribution from a Bayesian multistate model described in Stanton et al. 2024 (https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.17834). References: Stanton JC, Brey MK, Coulter AA, Stewart DR, Knights B. 2024. Bayesian multistate...
The influence of fire-fuel feedbacks on boreal forest fire regimes under future climate change The influence of fire-fuel feedbacks on boreal forest fire regimes under future climate change
This data release contains a set of 21st-century burned-area projections to explicitly account for fire-fuel feedbacks in boreal North America for the years 2010 - 2100. Wildfire regimes in the boreal forest biome of North America are vulnerable to shifts in climate, and significant intensifications in area burned are anticipated under many 21st-century global climate model (GCM)...
Microfocus X-ray computed tomography measurements of ostracode Paracyprideis pseudopunctillata from the Beaufort Sea Microfocus X-ray computed tomography measurements of ostracode Paracyprideis pseudopunctillata from the Beaufort Sea
This dataset includes measurements of shell properties (e.g. density, volume, and weight) of the ostracode species Paracyprideis pseudopunctillata (subphylum Crustacea), which inhabits the continental shelves of the Arctic Ocean. Using microfocus X-ray computed tomography (microXCT) scans, we generated detailed morphometric measurements of specimens collected from both surface and down...
Water withdrawals in Louisiana, 2020 Water withdrawals in Louisiana, 2020
Information concerning the availability, use, and quality of water in the 64 parishes of Louisiana is critical for water-supply management. In cooperation with the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Lower Mississippi-Gulf (LMG) Water Science Center (WSC) has been collecting, compiling, and publishing water-withdrawal and water-use...
