Wildfire building destruction and exposure in the conterminous United States, 2002-2022 Wildfire building destruction and exposure in the conterminous United States, 2002-2022
Wildfires pose a major threat to human life and property, but there is limited information for assessing numbers or precise locations of building losses at a national scale. This geospatial dataset was developed to identify point locations of all buildings destroyed by or exposed to major wildfire disasters from 2002-2022. The data include all wildfire events in the conterminous United...
Sedimentological Data from Streambanks and Adjacent Hillslopes in the Stony Clove and Woodland Creek Watersheds, Catskill Mountain Region, New York Sedimentological Data from Streambanks and Adjacent Hillslopes in the Stony Clove and Woodland Creek Watersheds, Catskill Mountain Region, New York
This data release contains results from the analysis of streambank and adjacent hillslope sediment samples collected from the Stony Clove and Woodland Creek watersheds in the Catskill Mountain region of New York State from July to October 2024. Fourteen or fifteen samples were collected from each of three depositional units — alluvium, glaciolacustrine clay, and glacial till. Results...
Preliminary digital terrain map of mélange and intact rock determined by interpretation of terrain details in the junction area of Coastal and Central belts of the Franciscan Complex between Gualala and Ukiah, northern California Coast Ranges Preliminary digital terrain map of mélange and intact rock determined by interpretation of terrain details in the junction area of Coastal and Central belts of the Franciscan Complex between Gualala and Ukiah, northern California Coast Ranges
A terrain-based map of a large area of Franciscan Complex delineates varied areas of erosionally resistant topography and contrasting subdued topography distinguished using differences in the detailed shapes of individual topographic elements that in these rocks indicate relatively intact rock or mélange. Most of the line work in the map is based on interpretation of small-scale aerial...
