Estimate of Georgia water-use data by county for 2020 Estimate of Georgia water-use data by county for 2020
In cooperation with the Georgia Environmental Protection Division, the U.S. Geological Survey compiled four datasets summarizing 2020 water use for the state of Georgia by county. These datasets include: annual aquifer withdrawals; industrial water use by category; public supply water use; and total water use across multiple variables, including domestic, commercial, industrial, mining
Continuous Water Quality, Suspended Solids, and Enterococci Data from the Harlem River, Bronx, New York, Jan 2021- Sept 2021 Continuous Water Quality, Suspended Solids, and Enterococci Data from the Harlem River, Bronx, New York, Jan 2021- Sept 2021
This data set contains continuous water-surface elevation and water-quality (temperature, specific conductance, salinity, and turbidity) data recorded at 6- and 15-minute intervals, respectively, from two sites in the Bronx on the Harlem River -- Roberto Clemente State Park and Mill Pond Park. Water elevation was monitored every second to detect changes indicative of boat wakes expected...
Spatial data of oil and gas pads and access roads on the Colorado Plateau, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico Spatial data of oil and gas pads and access roads on the Colorado Plateau, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico
This data release contains spatial data on the location, number, size and extent of energy-related surface disturbances on the Colorado Plateau of Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico as of 2016. The database includes: 1) polygons of oil and gas pads generated from automated and manual classification of aerial imagery, and 2) polylines of roads derived from the U.S. Census Bureau TIGER/Line...

Reconnaissance of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Selected Groundwater and Surface Water Sites in McHenry County, Illinois, 2020 Reconnaissance of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) in Selected Groundwater and Surface Water Sites in McHenry County, Illinois, 2020
Data were collected at 19 groundwater monitoring wells and 3 surface water locations across McHenry County, Illinois, in 2020 by staff from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Central Midwest Water Science Center. Quality control samples (2 blanks and 1 replicate) were also collected to assess data reliability and precision. Samples were submitted to the USGS National Water Quality...
Field, Geochemical, Geochronological, and Magnetic Data from a Pliocene basalt flow along the Deschutes River in north-central Oregon Field, Geochemical, Geochronological, and Magnetic Data from a Pliocene basalt flow along the Deschutes River in north-central Oregon
This dataset represents a variety of scientific measurements of basalt rock outcrops in central Oregon, United States. It consists of field observations, geochemical measurements, paleomagnetic directional measurements, magnetic susceptibility, and geochronology data (Ar-Ar methodology). This dataset was collected from 2014-2022 by the authors.
