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.

Sedimentary organic geochemistry data from Escanaba Trough, off the coast of northern California, collected May-June 2022 Sedimentary organic geochemistry data from Escanaba Trough, off the coast of northern California, collected May-June 2022
This data release presents organic geochemical data collected from sediments within the Escanaba Trough, a sedimented hydrothermal spreading center within the U.S. EEZ off the coast of Northern CA which contains marine minerals (USGS Field Activity 2022-621-FA). The data includes total organic carbon and total nitrogen content, stable and radioisotopes, compound specific biomarker data...
Fish Nutritional Quality, Biomarkers, Communities, and Environmental Data from the Nearshore Beaufort Sea, Alaska, 2021-2023 Fish Nutritional Quality, Biomarkers, Communities, and Environmental Data from the Nearshore Beaufort Sea, Alaska, 2021-2023
This data release contains information derived from fishing efforts and sampled fish from the nearshore Beaufort Sea, Alaska, 2021-2023, as part of a study investigating red-throated loon productivity and diet. The datasets include six tables comprising 1) catch per unit effort (CPUE) data, 2) field-measured lengths of fish (mm), 3) the energy density (kJ/g) and whole-body energy (kJ) of...
Probability of Streamflow Permanence (PROSPER) Model version 2.1 Output Layers for the Pacific Northwest region, 2004 - 2016 Probability of Streamflow Permanence (PROSPER) Model version 2.1 Output Layers for the Pacific Northwest region, 2004 - 2016
This data release contains the model inputs, outputs, and source code (written in R) for a redeveloped PRObability of Streamflow PERmanence (PROSPER) model (version 2.1) that had previously been developed for the Pacific Northwest Region (PROSPER_PNW_2), and a raster data set which shows where influential predictor values were outside the range of calibration data. The PROSPER-PNW...
Digital Database of a 3D Geological Model of the Denver Basin Digital Database of a 3D Geological Model of the Denver Basin
This digital database release contains elevation surfaces on 24 surfaces representing the tops of geological formations in the Denver Basin. These surfaces were exported as raster data from Leapfrog software, in which the model was constructed. Inputs to the model include well top data compiled from state agencies, formation contacts extracted from the Stage Geological Map Compilation...
Geophysical, zircon U-Pb data, and lithologic log for borehole CFPP-B01, eastern Snake River Plain, Idaho Geophysical, zircon U-Pb data, and lithologic log for borehole CFPP-B01, eastern Snake River Plain, Idaho
In 2020, Cascade Drilling, contracted by Rizzo International, Inc., drilled and constructed corehole CFPP-B01 (USGS Site 433814113031801) for stratigraphic framework analysis. The corehole is located along the western boundary of the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) just south of State Highway 33 in southeastern Idaho. Corehole CFPP-B01 was continuously cored from approximately 4 to 1538...
Environmental DNA detections from deep seafloor habitats in the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem Environmental DNA detections from deep seafloor habitats in the California Current Large Marine Ecosystem
Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding may have utility in biodiversity surveys of marine environments, particularly for small, rare, or cryptic taxa that are more difficult to study using traditional methods (e.g., trawling and visual surveys). For this study, we used an eDNA metabarcoding approach to characterize biodiversity in the above-seafloor water column across three West Coast...
