Klamath Marsh January Through June Maximum Surface Water Extent, 1985-2021 Klamath Marsh January Through June Maximum Surface Water Extent, 1985-2021
The U.S. Geological Survey Oregon Water Science Center, in cooperation with The Klamath Tribes initiated a project to understand changes in surface-water prevalence of Klamath Marsh, Oregon and changes in groundwater levels within and surrounding the marsh. The initial phase of the study focused on developing datasets needed for future interpretive phases of the investigation. This data...
Workflow to acquire and process large spatial data and build complex models Workflow to acquire and process large spatial data and build complex models
This software involves R scripts to download and process large-scale spatial data defined by an extent input by the user. The code then resamples data to the desired resolution, downloads metadata from a public website on West Nile virus prevalence in mosquito pools, then extracts spatial layer data as covariates for each record. Also, this software involves R script to fit models of...
Elicited qualitative value of information scores for eastern black rail uncertainties on the Atlantic Coast from a 2020 adaptive management workshop Elicited qualitative value of information scores for eastern black rail uncertainties on the Atlantic Coast from a 2020 adaptive management workshop
The eastern black rail (Laterallus jamaicensis jamaicensis; hereafter rail) is a small, cryptic marshbird that was recently listed as threatened under the U.S. Endangered Species Act. We organized a rapid prototyping workshop to initiate development of an adaptive management for rails on the Atlantic Coast. The in-person workshop spanned 2.5 days and was held in Titusville, Florida in...
Data from two tracer investigations in the Snake Creek drainage, Great Basin National Park, White Pine County, Nevada Data from two tracer investigations in the Snake Creek drainage, Great Basin National Park, White Pine County, Nevada
This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release consists of data from two tracer investigations in the Snake Creek drainage of Great Basin National Park, White Pine County, Nevada. The first investigation, occurring from April to September 2019, involved injecting a fluorescein dye tracer below a diversion point in Snake Creek and monitoring 13 sites in the Snake Creek and neighboring...
Fisheries Surveys and Management Planning in the St. Clair - Detroit River System and Western Basin of Lake Erie, 1971 - 2021 Fisheries Surveys and Management Planning in the St. Clair - Detroit River System and Western Basin of Lake Erie, 1971 - 2021
These data include goals, objectives, and performance measures from management plans and monitoring surveys related to fisheries management in the St. Clair-Detroit River System and the Western Basin of Lake Erie. Researchers extracted these data from existing management plans identified from on-line grey literature searches and discussions with collaborators and regional fisheries...
Russian River Integrated Hydrologic Model (RRIHM): Climate Data for 1990-2015 Russian River Integrated Hydrologic Model (RRIHM): Climate Data for 1990-2015
The Russian River Watershed (RRW) covers about 1,300 square miles (without Santa Rosa Plain) of urban, agricultural, and forested lands in northern Sonoma County and southern Mendocino County, California. Communities in the RRW depend on a combination of Russian River water and groundwater to meet their water-supply demands. Water is used primarily for agricultural irrigation, municipal...
