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.

Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR) Measurements and Depth-to-Bedrock Estimates in the Cattaraugus Creek Valley between Springville and Arcade in Erie, Cattaraugus, and Wyoming Counties, New York, 2019-2023 Horizontal-to-Vertical Spectral Ratio (HVSR) Measurements and Depth-to-Bedrock Estimates in the Cattaraugus Creek Valley between Springville and Arcade in Erie, Cattaraugus, and Wyoming Counties, New York, 2019-2023
This data release contains 43 horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) seismic measurements in Erie, Cattaraugus, and Wyoming Counties, New York collected between 2019 and 2023, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation. The HVSR passive seismic method (Lane and others, 2008; Fairchild and others, 2013) is a non-invasive and cost-effective...
Passive acoustic data collected using stationary hydrophones on rivers in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon Passive acoustic data collected using stationary hydrophones on rivers in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon
Underwater passive acoustic monitoring was conducted at multiple sites on rivers in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon. Hydrophones were used to record the sound associated with coarse river-bed sediment (bedload) movement. Bedload supply and transport are key factors determining channel morphology in gravel-bed rivers and can affect reach-scale conditions such as aggradation and...
CORHIST: 200 years of historical coregonine spawning in the Great Lakes CORHIST: 200 years of historical coregonine spawning in the Great Lakes
The dataset presented here, a historical coregonine spawning database, or CORHIST for short, is the result of several years of coordinated research in archives, libraries, and field stations, to track down evidence of spawning locations for the Coregoninae sub-family of ciscoes and whitefishes in the Great Lakes of North America and their tributaries. Our objective was to accurately...
SnowModel Simulations for the 2022–23 Water Years, near Coal Creek, San Juan Mountains, Colorado, USA SnowModel Simulations for the 2022–23 Water Years, near Coal Creek, San Juan Mountains, Colorado, USA
This data release contains SnowModel snow evolution simulation output from water years 2022 to 2023 (October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2023) on a 100-meter (m) geospatial grid for a 3 kilometer (km) × 2 km model domain near Coal Creek off Coal Bank Pass in the San Juan Mountains in southwest Colorado, USA. The three quantities simulated for this release were snow water equivalent...
FLOwPER Database: StreamFLOw PERmanence field observations, Jan 2022 - Dec 2022 FLOwPER Database: StreamFLOw PERmanence field observations, Jan 2022 - Dec 2022
IMPORTANT NOTE: This dataset includes spatial locations where streamflow permanence observations (continuous flow, discontinuous flow, and dry) were recorded using the FLOwPER (FLOw PERmanence) field survey available in the Survey 123 mobile data collection application. Additional information to describe the field conditions are included as part of the survey. Field observations in the...
Data release for The ichnology of White Sands (New Mexico): linear traces and human footprints, evidence of transport technology? Data release for The ichnology of White Sands (New Mexico): linear traces and human footprints, evidence of transport technology?
This dataset lists the values of experiments with modern travois. The abstract of the associated interpretive product describing the findings at the site is as follows: A travois is crafted from one or more wooden poles and is one of the simplest pre-historic vehicles. Although these devices likely played vital roles in the lives of ancient peoples, they have low preservation potential...
