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.

Visible and Near Infrared (VNIR) and Short Wavelength Infrared (SWIR) Spectra of Select Rock Cores and Waste Material from Nine Uranium Mine Sites in Karnes and Live Oak Counties, Texas Visible and Near Infrared (VNIR) and Short Wavelength Infrared (SWIR) Spectra of Select Rock Cores and Waste Material from Nine Uranium Mine Sites in Karnes and Live Oak Counties, Texas
These data represent laboratory reflectance measurements conducted on a suite of sandstone, tuffaceous mudstone and claystone rocks and sediment, which are known host and source materials for roll front Uranium deposits mined throughout the South Texas Coastal Plains. Visible through Near Infrared through Shortwave Infrared (~0.4 - 2.5 microns) reflectance were measured using an...
Entry and spread of specialist and generalist infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) genotypes in Chinook salmon, steelhead and sockeye salmon Entry and spread of specialist and generalist infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) genotypes in Chinook salmon, steelhead and sockeye salmon
Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) represents one of the most critical challenges for salmonids in the Pacific Northwest. There are three genogroups of IHNV, designated U, M, and L; the U is further delineated into two subgroups, UC and UP, and the M is further delineated into four subgroups (MA – MD). The UP, UC and MD subgroups co-occur in the Columbia River Basin where the...
Select structure observations, model results, and model input parameters for debris-flow runout model simulations of the 9 January 2018 Montecito debris-flow runout event Select structure observations, model results, and model input parameters for debris-flow runout model simulations of the 9 January 2018 Montecito debris-flow runout event
This dataset contains three comma separated value files that represent a combination of previously published structure observations and select model results at the location of each structure centroid from a separate previously published simulation study. -"buildings.csv" represents the merging of structure damage observations published in Kean et al. (2019) and structure locations from...
Mangrove damage along northern Gulf of Mexico from extreme freeze event on February 2021 Mangrove damage along northern Gulf of Mexico from extreme freeze event on February 2021
Climate change is altering the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. Quantifying ecosystem responses to extreme events at the landscape scale is critical for understanding and responding to climate-driven change but is constrained by limited data availability. Here, we integrated remote sensing with ground-based observations to quantify landscape-scale vegetation damage from...
2021 Gulf of Mexico Mangrove Freeze Damage Data 2021 Gulf of Mexico Mangrove Freeze Damage Data
This data set contains measurements of black mangrove (Avicennia germinans) leaf damage following the February 2021 freeze event that affected mangroves in the northern Gulf of Mexico.
Potential Sea Turtle Nesting Areas for Cat and Ship Island, Mississippi for various years from 1998 to 2020 (ver. 4.0, November 2025) Potential Sea Turtle Nesting Areas for Cat and Ship Island, Mississippi for various years from 1998 to 2020 (ver. 4.0, November 2025)
The Mississippi Coastal Improvement Program (MsCIP) Monitoring and Adaptive Management Program (MAMP) notes that five sea turtle species are found in the northern Gulf of America (Gulf of Mexico), including loggerhead, green, Kemp’s ridley, leatherback, and hawksbill. Green, loggerhead, and Kemp’s ridley sea turtles are regularly documented in the waters surrounding the barrier islands...
