Integrated Population Model & Population Viability Analysis of the Cape Sable Seaside Sparrow (CSSS, Ammospiza maritima mirabilis) Integrated Population Model & Population Viability Analysis of the Cape Sable Seaside Sparrow (CSSS, Ammospiza maritima mirabilis)
This software release contains the R code to jointly run an integrated population model (IPM) and Bayesian population viability analysis (BPVA) for the Cape Sable Seaside Sparrow (CSSS; Ammospiza maritima mirabilis). The CSSS is a federally endangered bird endemic to a small part of the Everglades in southern Florida, USA. The IPM-BPVA synthesizes thirty years (1992-2021) of range-wide...
Immediate impacts of tropical storms on the avian breeding community at Whiskey Island, Louisiana from 2015-2020 Immediate impacts of tropical storms on the avian breeding community at Whiskey Island, Louisiana from 2015-2020
We monitored breeding birds at Whiskey Island, Louisiana between March through July from 2015 to 2020. We surveyed all available habitat by foot, using high-powered spotting scopes and binoculars to search for and identify nesting birds. We documented species, abundance, habitat, location, and breeding behavior for each bird that we observed to be breeding. We modeled the counts of...
USGS National and Global Oil and Gas Assessment Project—Santa Maria Basin Province, California: Assessment Unit Boundaries, Assessment Input Data, and Fact Sheet Data Tables USGS National and Global Oil and Gas Assessment Project—Santa Maria Basin Province, California: Assessment Unit Boundaries, Assessment Input Data, and Fact Sheet Data Tables
This data release contains the boundaries of assessment units and input data for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources in the Santa Maria Basin Province, California. The assessment unit is the fundamental unit used in the National Assessment Project for the assessment of undiscovered oil and gas resources. The assessment unit is defined within the context of the higher...
Hillslope hydrological monitoring data in Puerto Rico, October 2021 to September 2025 Hillslope hydrological monitoring data in Puerto Rico, October 2021 to September 2025
This data release includes time-series data from 18 monitoring stations installed in Puerto Rico following Hurricane María in 2017, which led to over 70,000 landslides across the island (Hughes and others, 2017). The first two stations were installed in July of 2018 (Smith and others, 2020) to investigate subsurface hydrologic response to rainfall and develop a quantitative link between...
Electron microprobe analyses of olivine and oxide grains from the Five Fingers lava flows in the northern Harrat Rahat volcanic field, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Electron microprobe analyses of olivine and oxide grains from the Five Fingers lava flows in the northern Harrat Rahat volcanic field, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
We present new electron microprobe analyses of olivine and oxide grains hosted in three young basaltic lava flows located in northern Harrat Rahat, a distributed volcanic field in central-western Saudi Arabia.These lavas, collectively referred to as the Five Fingers, erupted at ca. 24 ka from three elongate vent complexes that fall along a common lineament. Integrated with existing...
Overflight thermal imagery of the eruption of the north crater of Mount Young, Semisopochnoi Island, Alaska, 2021 Overflight thermal imagery of the eruption of the north crater of Mount Young, Semisopochnoi Island, Alaska, 2021
The Alaska Volcano Observatory conducted overflights of the active north crater of Mount Young on Semisopochonoi Island, Alaska, during its eruption in 2021 to capture the volcanic and hydrothermal activity within the vent during (May 30) and between (June 8) ash emissions. Thermal videos were acquired to see through the ash and steam and observe the features within the active crater...
