Sampling site, water quality, and fish community data from multi-agency monitoring of the Illinois Waterway response to lock and dam closures, 2019-2021 Sampling site, water quality, and fish community data from multi-agency monitoring of the Illinois Waterway response to lock and dam closures, 2019-2021
Lock and dam closures along the Illinois Waterway occurred in summer of 2020, resulting in a prolonged reduction in traffic of large vessels along the Waterway. To study the response of Illinois Waterway water quality and fish community, ongoing water quality and fish Long Term Resource Monitoring (LTRMP) elements of the Upper Mississippi River Restoration program were expanded from the...
Integrated Bathymetric and Topographic Data of the San Juan River near Farmington, New Mexico, 2024 Integrated Bathymetric and Topographic Data of the San Juan River near Farmington, New Mexico, 2024
In March 2024, the U.S. Geological Survey New Mexico Water Science Center (NMWSC) and Idaho Water Science Center (IDWSC), in cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR), completed bathymetric and topographic surveys on the San Juan River near Farmington, NM at the USBR Navajo Gallup Water Supply Project (NGWSP) intake and outfall structure. The bathymetric and topographic data...

The main data set comprises the list of plant species observed and includes the transect ID, transect number, plot number, plot size, vegetation type, and terrain type where each species was found. A second data set has the locations of the transects, along with their IDs which...
Summer Roost Site Suitability Analyses of Four North American Bat Species in the Eastern United States Summer Roost Site Suitability Analyses of Four North American Bat Species in the Eastern United States
This data release contains the spatial raster outputs from analyses of summer roost site habitat for each of 4 species considered under the United States Forest Service proposed Bat Conservation Strategy (Myotis lucifugus, MYLU; Myotis septentrionalis, MYSE; Myotis sodalis, MYSO; and Perimyotis subflavus, PESU). The included raster data represent the mean suitability for summer roosting...
Seismic Reflection Profiles Imaging the Seattle Fault Zone Beneath West Seattle, Central Seattle, and Mercer Island, Washington State Seismic Reflection Profiles Imaging the Seattle Fault Zone Beneath West Seattle, Central Seattle, and Mercer Island, Washington State
The U.S. Geological Survey, with funding from the National Earthquakes Hazard Reduction Program, collected ~24 km of north-south trending land-based P-wave seismic reflection profiles gathered across three urban areas in Seattle, Washington: West Seattle, central Seattle, and Mercer Island. The West Seattle profiles were collected with an accelerated weight drop source and 8 Hz vertical...
