Analysis data for reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) niche modeling in Upper Mississippi River floodplain forest understories Analysis data for reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) niche modeling in Upper Mississippi River floodplain forest understories
This dataset contains the information used to perform ecological niche modeling for reed canarygrass (Phalaris arundinacea) in floodplain forests of the Upper Mississippi River, USA. We used presence and absence of reed canarygrass from US Army Corps of Engineers forest inventory plots sampled between 2008-2018 as our response variable along with several predictor variables derived from...
Nocardia cyriacigeorgica in a Mallard Duck Nocardia cyriacigeorgica in a Mallard Duck
Nocardia spp. are opportunistic pathogens of humans, domestic animals, and wildlife that can cause high levels of morbidity and mortality. Reported cases of nocardiosis in Aves are rare. We diagnosed nocardial airsacculitis in a free-ranging mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos) from Arizona, USA. Histopathology showed multiple granulomas expanding the air sac with intralesional filamentous...
Water temperature in the Upper Missouri, Milk, and Yellowstone Rivers, and associated air temperature and discharge data Water temperature in the Upper Missouri, Milk, and Yellowstone Rivers, and associated air temperature and discharge data
The data set contains measurement locations and measurements of daily and sub-daily water temperature, daily river discharge, and daily air temperature for several sites in the Upper Missouri River basin of Montana and North Dakota, 2001-2022. Water temperature sites include: the Missouri River upstream from Fort Peck Reservoir, Montana; multiple locations through a 351-km reach...
Summary of Detection Data for Breeding Common Loons in North-central Minnesota (2024) Summary of Detection Data for Breeding Common Loons in North-central Minnesota (2024)
The Deepwater Horizon oil spill on April 20, 2010 caused extensive injury to natural resources in the Gulf of Mexico, and Gavia immer (common loon) were negatively affected from the spill. The Open Ocean Trustee Implementation Group funded the project Restoration of Common Loons in Minnesota to restore common loons lost to the spill. In 2020–21, study lakes in a seven-county region in...

This dataset is in one table with mark-recapture and resight data of Emperor Geese marked with plastic color bands on the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta in Alaska, 1994-2017.
Digital Representation of Isopach Maps for Selected Sequences of the Cretaceous Published by Reeside (1944) and Other Sources Digital Representation of Isopach Maps for Selected Sequences of the Cretaceous Published by Reeside (1944) and Other Sources
Information of hydrogeologic and geologic importance from the U.S. Geological Survey Oil and Gas Investigations Map 10, "Maps showing thickness and general character of the Cretaceous deposits in the western interior of the United States" (Reeside, 1944) were digitized from scanned maps 1, 2, 9, and 10. Isopach contours were captured and, along with Geologic Map of North America (GMNA)...
