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.

Electrofishing, environmental DNA, and habitat data for watercourses in the Goose Lake Basin, Oregon, U.S.A., 2022–2024 Electrofishing, environmental DNA, and habitat data for watercourses in the Goose Lake Basin, Oregon, U.S.A., 2022–2024
We collected electrofishing, environmental DNA (eDNA), and habitat data from 2022 to 2024 in the Oregon portion of the Goose Lake Basin. Data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and Oregon State University (OSU) to monitor native and non-native fish distributions in the Basin, and to relate observed abundances to specific habitat features. Sampling was conducted in...
Stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopic compositions of precipitation samples from selected Virginia and West Virginia National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) sites Stable hydrogen and oxygen isotopic compositions of precipitation samples from selected Virginia and West Virginia National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) sites
The stable hydrogen (delta 2H) and oxygen (delta 18O) isotopic compositions of more than 1,400 daily or weekly composite samples of precipitation from four National Atmospheric Deposition Program (NADP) sites (VA10, VA27, VA28, and WV99) in Virginia and West Virginia were analyzed on archived samples obtained from NADP over various time periods from as early as 1998. The samples are from...
Climate change effects on ecosystem services supply & demand: an updated synthesis data release Climate change effects on ecosystem services supply & demand: an updated synthesis data release
Climate change is a pervasive and growing global threat to the supply and demand of ecosystem goods and services that maintain human well-being. A recent review found that the impacts of climate change on ecosystem services are sometimes mixed, posing challenges for managers who need to adapt to these changes. We expand on earlier work by exploring drivers of varying responses of...
STATSGO Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs for the Continental US STATSGO Cloud Optimized GeoTIFFs for the Continental US
This data release reformats data fields from the STATSGO soil characteristics dataset (Schwarz and Alexander, 1995) as cloud-optimized GeoTIFFs (COGs). The COG format allows standard software tools to efficiently access the datasets over an internet connection. Please refer to the documentation of the source archive (Schwarz and Alexander, 1995) for additional details on the underlying...
Current geographic distribution of nine-banded armadillos in the United States Current geographic distribution of nine-banded armadillos in the United States
These data are associated with occurrences of nine-banded armadillos across the United States. There are associated biological and environmental variables associated with some of the occurrence data. These were used for a species distribution model.
Digital Representation of Selected Isopach and Geologic Maps from U.S. Geological Survey Paleotectonic Publications Digital Representation of Selected Isopach and Geologic Maps from U.S. Geological Survey Paleotectonic Publications
Important hydrological and geotechnical information from U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) reports detailing selected paleotectonic geologic periods, including the Jurassic (McKee and others, 1956), Triassic (McKee and others, 1959), Permian (McKee and McKee, 1967), Pennsylvanian (McKee and Crosby, 1975), and Mississippian (Craig and Connor, 1979), were digitized from scanned plates...
