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.

2025 Columbia River Estuary 69 kHz Telemetry Detections 2025 Columbia River Estuary 69 kHz Telemetry Detections
We conducted a study to examine the use of off-channel and dredge spoil habitats by migrating juvenile salmonids in the Columbia River Estuary. In addition to the equipment deployed to detect transmitters implanted in juvenile salmonids for this study, a subset of the deployed gear included 69 kHz acoustic telemetry receivers. These receivers opportunistically monitored movements of...
Monotonic Trends in Modelled Water Supply for Select Outputs from NHM-PRMS, WRF-Hydro, and CONUS404-BA, 1983-2021 and 2000-2020 Monotonic Trends in Modelled Water Supply for Select Outputs from NHM-PRMS, WRF-Hydro, and CONUS404-BA, 1983-2021 and 2000-2020
This dataset contains the Mann-Kendall p value, Theil - Sen slope estimate, summary statistics for eleven modelled water budget components simulated by the following modeling applications: the National Hydrologic Model Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (NHM-PRMS) version 1.1 (Markstrom and others, 2024), the Weather Research and Forecasting hydrological modeling application (WRF-Hydro
Algal associated Benthic macroinvertebrate data collected in the Great Lakes, 2024 Algal associated Benthic macroinvertebrate data collected in the Great Lakes, 2024
This data set includes information on macroinvertebrate community composition collected along with benthic algae and dreissenid mussels from May to October of 2024. Stations are located along the U.S. shoreline of Lakes Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario. Macroinvertebrates were identified from benthic samples collected by scuba divers. Macroinvertebrates, algae, and dreissenids were...
DEMs of Difference for selected areas of the Los Planes Watershed, Baja California Sur, Mexico 2024 DEMs of Difference for selected areas of the Los Planes Watershed, Baja California Sur, Mexico 2024
These digital elevation models of difference (DEMs of Difference, or DoDs) display topographic change from the targeted stream channel at a controlled watershed #4 and study watershed #1 within the larger Los Planes Watershed.The DoDs are computed from a very-high resolution drone DEM surveyed in 2024 and aerial lidar DEM from 2021.Several processing steps were taken to align DEMs and...
Projected change in seven annual phenology metrics under future climate scenarios in the U.S. Southwest Projected change in seven annual phenology metrics under future climate scenarios in the U.S. Southwest
The dataset includes processing scripts and 42 raster files of predicted change (delta) in annual vegetation phenology under future climate scenarios in the U.S. Southwest, using different combinations of phenology metrics, time periods, and emissions scenarios. Delta values are median projected changes across 10 global climate models and are relative to a reference period of 1981-2010
RT-QuIC Florescence Data from Experimental Soils Varying in Soil Texture RT-QuIC Florescence Data from Experimental Soils Varying in Soil Texture
We assessed the performance of the real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) assay under different soil textures. We combined sand, silt and clay in different proportions to create experimental soils representative of southwest Wisconsin, USA. Experimental soils were spiked with a brain homogenate from a chronic wasting disease positive white-tailed deer (to test assay sensitivity)...
