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.

Chesapeake Stream Team Field Sites, 2021-2024 Chesapeake Stream Team Field Sites, 2021-2024
Each year from 2021-2024, teams from the US Geological Survey and Virginia Tech studied 30 streams with a targeted gradient of land use and conservation practices across the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. The four years of the study cover the following geographic areas and land use characteristics: -Shenandoah Valley and Ridge pasture -Delmarva row crop -Pennsylvania and Maryland Piedmont...
Basin characteristics in support of generalized least-squares (GLS) regression for 136 USGS streamgages in urban areas in Tennessee and parts of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and South Carolina (ver. 2.0, September 2025) Basin characteristics in support of generalized least-squares (GLS) regression for 136 USGS streamgages in urban areas in Tennessee and parts of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and South Carolina (ver. 2.0, September 2025)
This data release contains a dataset of geospatial and tabular data used in support of a flood-frequency study of urban streams in Tennessee and parts of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, and South Carolina (Wagner and Ladd, 2026). The dataset includes data used in the development of generalized least-squares (GLS) regression equations for predicting streamflows at ungaged...
Foothill Yellow-Legged Frog (Rana boylii) 2022 Site and Survey Data In and Near the Footprint of the 2021 Dixie Fire, Northeastern California, USA Foothill Yellow-Legged Frog (Rana boylii) 2022 Site and Survey Data In and Near the Footprint of the 2021 Dixie Fire, Northeastern California, USA
These data were collected to assess the occurrence of foothill yellow-legged frogs (Rana boylii) in 2022, one year after the 2021 Dixie Fire in northeastern California, USA. The data included herein are those required to replicate the occupancy analysis presented in the manuscript, cited in the larger work. Additional site data are included in the manuscript itself.
Federal Lands Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sequestration in the United States: Estimates 2005-22 - Data Federal Lands Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sequestration in the United States: Estimates 2005-22 - Data
This dataset includes eighteen years of emissions and sequestration estimates (2005-2022) in two separate tables. Table 1 includes the greenhouse gas emissions from the combustion and extraction of fossil fuels on Federal mineral lands. Table 2 is the emissions and sequestration from ecosystem processes on Federal surface lands. The fossil fuel related estimates include the greenhouse...
Water balance evapotranspiration (2002-2015 average) and bias adjustment factor for SSEBop ET across HUC8 basins in the conterminous United States Water balance evapotranspiration (2002-2015 average) and bias adjustment factor for SSEBop ET across HUC8 basins in the conterminous United States
The water balance equivalence (WABE) method for reducing biases from remote sensing-derived evapotranspiration (RSET) products for large area applications is proposed and implemented across eight-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC8) basins in the conterminous United States (CONUS). These data support the findings of the WABE method that includes climatology (2002-2015 average) observed...
Attributes for NHDPlus Version 2.1 Catchments and Modified Routing of Upstream Watersheds for Selected Regions of the Conterminous United States Attributes for NHDPlus Version 2.1 Catchments and Modified Routing of Upstream Watersheds for Selected Regions of the Conterminous United States
This metadata record describes a series of data sets of climate and land-use/land-cover features (provided in parquet file format) linked to NHDPlus Version 2.1’s (NHDPlusV2) stream segments, their associated catchments and their upstream watersheds within selected regions in the conterminous United States. All data can be linked to NHDPlusV2 using the COMID field in these tables and the...
