Biological, Hydrological, Water Quality, and Land Use Data Inputs for Alabama Ecohydrology Study (10-01-1999 to 09-30-2014) Biological, Hydrological, Water Quality, and Land Use Data Inputs for Alabama Ecohydrology Study (10-01-1999 to 09-30-2014)
The effects of high- and low-flow conditions on biological communities in Alabama streams were investigated by utilizing data on benthic macroinvertebrates, fish communities, hydrology, land use, and water quality. Biological data from streams and rivers in the Mobile River basin and other Gulf Coast drainages was collected from 278 sites between 1999 and 2014. These sites' upstream...

The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with Colorado Springs Utilities, has been collecting topographic data annually since 2012 at 10 study areas along Fountain Creek, Colorado. The 10 study areas are located along Fountain Creek between Colorado Springs and the confluence of Fountain Creek and the Arkansas River in Pueblo. This data release presents topographic survey data, Light...
Data Release: Bee and plant inventory data from four national parks in Maryland and Virginia, USA, 2021–2022 Data Release: Bee and plant inventory data from four national parks in Maryland and Virginia, USA, 2021–2022
This data release is for all native bee and plant records collected at four national parks in Maryland and Virginia, 2021 and 2022. The purpose of the study was to document the floral resources and native bees that depend on them within variously-managed park grasslands, with the goal of providing managers with information that will help them maximize pollinator habitat while...
Multiple-Well Aquifer Test Data from boreholes NRF-17 and NRF-18, Idaho National Laboratory, Idaho Multiple-Well Aquifer Test Data from boreholes NRF-17 and NRF-18, Idaho National Laboratory, Idaho
The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and Naval Reactor Facilities (NRF), conducted single-well aquifer tests in the eastern Snake River Plain (ESRP) aquifer on newly constructed wells, NRF-17 (Alias name USGS 151, Site ID 433846112540701) and NRF-18 (Alias name USGS 152, Site ID 433906112553401). Water level, barometric pressure, air...
Hydrogeologic framework database and model, Mountain Home area, southern Idaho Hydrogeologic framework database and model, Mountain Home area, southern Idaho
Groundwater in the arid Mountain Home area is vital to agricultural, municipal, industrial and other water users who are concerned about declining groundwater levels. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Idaho Department of Water Resources, developed a hydrogeologic framework to provide a conceptual understanding of groundwater resources in the Mountain Home area, which is...
Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment for Amphibians in the North Central United States Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment for Amphibians in the North Central United States
Climate change is a primary threat to biodiversity, but for most species, we still lack information required to assess their potential vulnerability to changes. Climate change vulnerability assessment (CCVA) is a widely-used technique to rank relative vulnerability to climate change based on species distributions, habitat associations, environmental tolerances, and life-history traits...
