Scientific studies that document plant material sourcing and selection in the interior central and western United States from 1994 to 2024 Scientific studies that document plant material sourcing and selection in the interior central and western United States from 1994 to 2024
These data were compiled for a literature review exploring science that informs plant material sourcing and selection in the interior central and western United States. Objectives of our study were to compile and summarize scientific literature that informs plant material selection to synthesize the state of knowledge relevant to decision-making. These data represent scientific studies...
Water classification of the Colorado River Corridor, Grand Canyon, Arizona, 2021—Data Water classification of the Colorado River Corridor, Grand Canyon, Arizona, 2021—Data
These data are a surface water classification map of surface water in the riparian corridor of Grand Canyon between Glen Canyon and Pearce Ferry, Arizona, published in ESRI shapefile format. The map was classified from 0.2 m resolution, multispectral imagery (Sankey and others, 2024) and are the same spatial resolution as the imagery. In order to differentiate between the boundary...

Acoustically tagged Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) of the Genesee River, 2019-2020 Acoustically tagged Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) of the Genesee River, 2019-2020
Acoustic telemetry is an effective tool for the study of fish survivorship and habitat use. Fish are tagged with acoustic tags and presence data is collected with stationary receivers. This data set contains a total of 69 hatchery tagged juvenile Lake Sturgeon released into the Genesee River, NY in the Fall of 2019 and 2020, along with data for 30 sub-adult Lake Sturgeon field tagged in...
Irrigation water use in Kansas, 2016 Irrigation water use in Kansas, 2016
This dataset describes irrigation water use in Kansas in 2016. Volumes of water used, irrigated area, and irrigation application depths are provided for three sets of subareas: (1) Irrigation water use analysis regions that include Groundwater Management Districts (GMDs) with the areas outside of GMDs divided into eastern, central, and western Kansas; (2) Regional Planning Areas (RPAs)...
North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) OneHealth (ver. 2.0, June 2025) North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) OneHealth (ver. 2.0, June 2025)
This dataset documents the results of large-scale surveillance efforts to assess coronavirus prevalence in North American bats. Wildlife monitoring is critical for establishing disease baselines and identifying key factors that inform conservation strategies aimed at reducing pathogen exposure among wildlife, domestic animals, and humans. Reports of SARS-CoV-2 in free-ranging wildlife in...
