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.

Mercury in bird blood and benthic aquatic invertebrates in Plumas National Forest, 2015-2016 Mercury in bird blood and benthic aquatic invertebrates in Plumas National Forest, 2015-2016
The dataset includes specifics on bird blood and aquatic invertebrate tissue mercury concentrations measured using direct mercury analysis.
Hydric and mesic riparian plant species data for quantifying divergent physiological responses to a Colorado River experimental flow Hydric and mesic riparian plant species data for quantifying divergent physiological responses to a Colorado River experimental flow
These data were compiled to assess physiological responses of plants to short-term changes in streamflow, both increased and decreased. Objective(s) of our study were to determine the degree to which plants with different habitat preferences and functional strategies responded to short-term increases or decreases in the elevation of the water table. These data represent streamflow rates
Compilation of Geospatial Data (GIS) for the Mineral Industries and Related Infrastructure of the People's Republic of China Compilation of Geospatial Data (GIS) for the Mineral Industries and Related Infrastructure of the People's Republic of China
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has compiled a geodatabase containing mineral-related geospatial data for the People's Republic of China. The data can be used in analyses of the extractive fuel and nonfuel mineral industries and related economic and physical infrastructure integral for the successful operation of the mineral industries within the area of study as well as the movement...
NO3GWT version 1.0.0 NO3GWT version 1.0.0
A groundwater Nitrate Decision Support Tool (GW-NDST) for wells in Wisconsin was developed to assist resource managers with assessing how legacy and possible future nitrate leaching rates, combined with groundwater lag times and potential denitrification, influence nitrate concentrations in wells (Juckem et al. 2024). The GW-NDST was reviewed and approved by the journal via this official...

Pre-fire satellite derived and field calculated functional cover across Great Basin megafires Pre-fire satellite derived and field calculated functional cover across Great Basin megafires
Data includes satellite derived pre-fire functional group cover of annual and perennial herbaceous, shrubs, bareground and litter across four rangeland megafires in the Western US, as well as field estimated invasive annual grass measurements from the 2nd to 3rd years post-fire. Additional landscape and restoration treatment covariates hypothesized to influence post-fire invasive annual...
