NASA GIFT Iceland Highlands: 2019 and 2021 Askja Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Observations NASA GIFT Iceland Highlands: 2019 and 2021 Askja Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Observations

This data collection includes ground-penetrating radar (GPR) data and related observations collected from the NASA Goddard Instrument Field Team (GIFT) Expedition to the Icelandic Highlands in July-August 2019 and August 2021. This dataset includes observations at the Askja Volcano and caldera and Vikrahraun lava flow. GPR data were collected using Geophysical Survey Systems, Inc (GSSI)...

Evaluating the impact of differences in remnant and reconstruction mycorrhizas on performance of conservative prairie plant species Evaluating the impact of differences in remnant and reconstruction mycorrhizas on performance of conservative prairie plant species

This data record contains arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) operational taxonomic unit (OTU) occurrences in native prairie plant roots collected from remnant prairies and reconstruction of tallgrass prairies in Minnesota and Iowa, from April-December of 2022. The research aims to improve prairie reconstruction methods using AMF to improve prairie plant performance, species diversity...

Eastern migratory monarch butterfly population estimates and associated early warning signals (2006-2022) Eastern migratory monarch butterfly population estimates and associated early warning signals (2006-2022)

The long decline of the eastern migratory population of monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) appears to have abated in recent years and the population now persists at a much-reduced abundance. Stochastic variation in abundance typical of monarch butterflies, and other insects, places this population at heightened risk of quasi-extinction, a level of abundance below which recovery of...

Diatom Data from Coastal Environments on Montague Island, Alaska Diatom Data from Coastal Environments on Montague Island, Alaska

This dataset consists of fossil diatom counts from sediment cores collected in coastal environments on Montague Island, Alaska, and analyzed at Virginia Tech University.

Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plains Sediment Thickness (v220517) Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plains Sediment Thickness (v220517)

This dataset of the elevation of basement and thickness of sediment above the syn- and post-rift unconformity (sediments above being generally Late Cretaceous and younger) was constructed for application to site response models in earthquake hazard analyses. Sediment thickness in meters is provided in zipped csv format on a 0.01-degree grid, and sediment thickness and basement elevation...
