Geophysical data and grids of the Grouse Creek and Utah part of the Jackpot 30' x 60' quadrangles, Utah Geophysical data and grids of the Grouse Creek and Utah part of the Jackpot 30' x 60' quadrangles, Utah
New geophysical data, including density and magnetic susceptibility measurements, were collected in the Grouse Creek and Utah part of the Jackpot 30' x 60' quadrangles in Box Elder County, Utah and Cassia County, Idaho. The release contains 324 new gravity measurements merged with a 2013 compilation. These data were inverted for basin thickness and basement density variations. The...
Rock mass quality and structural geology observations in Prince William Sound, Alaska (2022) Rock mass quality and structural geology observations in Prince William Sound, Alaska (2022)
Multiple subaerial landslides adjacent to Prince William Sound, Alaska (for example, Dai and others, 2020; Higman and others, 2023; Schaefer and others, 2024) pose a threat to the public because of their potential to generate ocean waves (Barnhart and others, 2021, 2022; Dai and others, 2020) that could affect towns and marine activities. One bedrock landslide on the west side of Barry...
Geospatial Dataset for the Geologic Framework and Hydrostratigraphy of the Edwards and Trinity Aquifers Within Northern Bexar and Comal Counties, Texas, at 1:24,000 scale Geospatial Dataset for the Geologic Framework and Hydrostratigraphy of the Edwards and Trinity Aquifers Within Northern Bexar and Comal Counties, Texas, at 1:24,000 scale
The Edwards and Trinity aquifers are major sources of water for agriculture, industry, and urban and rural communities in south-central Texas. Both the Edwards and Trinity aquifers are classified as major aquifers by the State of Texas. The dissolution of the carbonate rocks composing the Edwards and Trinity aquifers results in distinctive landforms rich in both springs and karst...

Boulder star coral Orbicella franksii (37 localities), brain coral Pseudodiploria strigosa (171), elkhorn coral Acropora palmata (36), mustard hill coral Porites...
Data Release for Prospectivity Mapping for Geologic Hydrogen Data Release for Prospectivity Mapping for Geologic Hydrogen
This data release contains multiple data layers and describes the processing steps associated with the U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 1900 "Prospectivity Mapping for Geologic Hydrogen". The data comprise the geologic and geophysical inputs used in support of the U.S. Geological Survey's efforts to create the first map of geologic hydrogen prospectivity within the U.S. The maps...
Compilation of surficial geology datasets for southern New England Compilation of surficial geology datasets for southern New England
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island Departments of Transportation (DOTs), gathered geospatial data to facilitate the development of a regional Stochastic Empirical Loading and Dilution Model (SELDM) application (Granato and others, 2023). As part of this study, the surficial geology...
