Hydrogeologic Aquifer Test dataset, Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center, March 2022 Hydrogeologic Aquifer Test dataset, Lower Mississippi-Gulf Water Science Center, March 2022
Since the 1940's, commercial, academic and government hydrologist have used aquifer test to estimate the hydrogeologic properties near test wells. Results from these tests are recorded in various files, databases, reports and scientific publications. The LMG-Hydrogeologic Test dataset is an attempt to aggregate these dispersed hydrogeologic test results into a single dataset that is...
Breeding Biology, Behavior, and Morphology of Emperor Geese and Other Waterfowl near Kokechik Bay, Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska during 1982-1988 Breeding Biology, Behavior, and Morphology of Emperor Geese and Other Waterfowl near Kokechik Bay, Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska during 1982-1988
This data package presents legacy data on Emperor Goose, Cackling Goose, Black Brant, and Greater White-fronted Goose, breeding biology, behavior, and morphology collected at study sites near Kokechik Bay on the Yukon Delta National Wildlife Refuge (previously Clarence Rhodes National Wildlife Refuge), Alaska during the summers of 1982 through 1988. These data were collected to provide a...
Data from Lab Experiments to Support Interim Guidance for Performing Calibration Checks on the Sequoia Scientific LISST-ABS Acoustic Backscatter Sensor Data from Lab Experiments to Support Interim Guidance for Performing Calibration Checks on the Sequoia Scientific LISST-ABS Acoustic Backscatter Sensor
As part of its mission to unify and standardize research and development activities of Federal agencies involved in fluvial sediment studies, the Federal Interagency Sedimentation Project (FISP) partnered with the USGS Wyoming-Montana (WY-MT) Water Science Center to examine the potential for use of standard, low-tech laboratory equipment to perform calibration checks on the LISST-ABS™...
The North Delta Routing and Survival Management Tool The North Delta Routing and Survival Management Tool
Understanding how routing modifications influence survival of juvenile salmon is complex because reach-specific survival and routing at key river junctions in the North Delta each have a different relationship with river flow. Therefore, to facilitate understanding of how routing modifications at key river junctions influence through-Delta survival, we developed this spreadsheet model to...
Gravity Data in the eastern Mojave Desert, California and Nevada Gravity Data in the eastern Mojave Desert, California and Nevada
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected gravity data in the eastern Mojave Desert, California and Nevada as an aid to characterizing the regional geologic framework. Gravity stations were located between approximately lat 35°10’ and 35°50’ N. and long 115°05’ and 115°50’ W. and were distributed from west to east across parts of Shadow Valley, Clark Mountain Range, Mescal Range...
The U.S. Inland Creel and Angler Survey Catalog (CreelCat): A Database and Interactive Tool for Inland Fisheries Management and Research (Depreciated April 2024) The U.S. Inland Creel and Angler Survey Catalog (CreelCat): A Database and Interactive Tool for Inland Fisheries Management and Research (Depreciated April 2024)
The U.S. Inland Creel and Angler Survey Catalog (CreelCat) contains data compiled from 14,729 creel and angler surveys conducted by state natural resource management agencies (including Washington DC and Puerto Rico) in inland waters across the United States. Data is are contained in eight .csv files which contain information about survey characteristics (Survey_Data.csv), angler effort...
