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.

Landuse / Landcover Map of Los Planes Watershed, Baja California Sur, Mexico Landuse / Landcover Map of Los Planes Watershed, Baja California Sur, Mexico
This landuse / landcover (LULC) map displays a basic depiction of the Los Planes watershed in Baja California Sur, Mexico. This simplified, 7-class LULC map displays classes that are useful for hydrologic modeling and broad vegetation mapping in the region. It was created from analysis of six Sentinel-2 satellite images and other existing geospatial datasets. These satellite images are...
U-Pb Isotope Geochronology Data and Geochemical Analyses of Selected Rocks from the Seldovia Quadrangle, Southcentral Alaska U-Pb Isotope Geochronology Data and Geochemical Analyses of Selected Rocks from the Seldovia Quadrangle, Southcentral Alaska
This dataset contains U-Pb isotopic data and associated ages of zircons within the lithologic framework of igneous, metaigneous, and metasedimentary rocks collected from the Seldovia quadrangle in southcentral Alaska. The samples were collected as part of geological mapping and research conducted from 2020 to 2023 and funded by the Mineral Resources Program of the U.S. Geological Survey...
Scavenging and frugivory data in the Greater Everglades, 2019 (ver. 2.0, July 2024) Scavenging and frugivory data in the Greater Everglades, 2019 (ver. 2.0, July 2024)
Mid-sized mammals (i.e., mesomammals) fulfill important ecological roles, serving as essential scavengers, predators, pollinators, and seed dispersers in the ecosystems they inhabit. Consequently, declines in mesomammal populations have the potential to disrupt ecological processes and degrade ecosystems. However, ecosystems characterized by high functional redundancy, where multiple...
Channel steepness and chi data for part of the northern San Francisco Bay Region including parts of the Russian River and Cache Creek watersheds, northern California Channel steepness and chi data for part of the northern San Francisco Bay Region including parts of the Russian River and Cache Creek watersheds, northern California
The California Coast Range are an area with a long-lived deformation history which includes modern, ongoing right lateral strike slip faulting. Large strike slip faults in the region include the San Andreas fault, the Maacama fault, the Bartlett Springs fault among many others. In areas where strike slip fault geometry changes, either in restraining or releasing bends, vertical motion...
Complete female and male mitogenomes of the mucket mussel (Ortmanniana ligamentina) Complete female and male mitogenomes of the mucket mussel (Ortmanniana ligamentina)
Data include fasta files of full mitochondrial sequence data for the male and female mitotypes of the mucket (Ortamannia ligamentina). These have been deposited in the NCBI database under BioSample Accession number SAMN39271813, SRA Accession number SRR27608898, and GenBank Accession numbers : PP103562 and PP103563.
Cave climate data in Wood Valley pit crater, Hawai'i Cave climate data in Wood Valley pit crater, Hawai'i
Wood Valley Pit Crater is a nearly circular pit approximately 50m across and 50m deep with vertical walls. This pit is of particular interest because it hosts access to a cave entrance at its base, providing an opportunity to monitor cave climate throughout a type of cave structure that is ordinarily inaccessible. In-situ cave climate observations included cold trapping, cave breathing...
