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.

U.S. Geological Survey simulations of hydrodynamics and morphodynamics at Core Banks, NC, during Hurricane Dorian (2019) U.S. Geological Survey simulations of hydrodynamics and morphodynamics at Core Banks, NC, during Hurricane Dorian (2019)
The Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere-Wave-Sediment Transport (COAWST v3.8; Warner and others, 2019; Warner and others, 2010) modeling system was used to simulate ocean circulation, water levels, and waves that occurred during Hurricane Dorian (2019) along the US East coast. Simulations were then further downscaled to focus on the resulting inundation, dune overtopping, and barrier island...
Portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) data from U.S. Army Base Fort Drum, Jefferson County, New York, 2023 (ver.1.1, May 2025) Portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) data from U.S. Army Base Fort Drum, Jefferson County, New York, 2023 (ver.1.1, May 2025)
The dataset documents results from portable X-ray fluorescence (pXRF) analysis conducted on a suite of sediment samples from U.S. Army Base Fort Drum, Jefferson County, New York. Most of the pXRF samples were collected from representative cells in a series of five portable optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) grids, here denoted G1 through G5, to constrain variations in grain size...

Decision model simulation of the reintroduction of bull trout in the upper Lake Chelan basin, Washington Decision model simulation of the reintroduction of bull trout in the upper Lake Chelan basin, Washington
The feasibility of a potential bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) reintroduction was simulated across 12 streams and river segments in the upper Lake Chelan basin using a population matrix model. The model considered habitat availability, life history expression, and assumptions regarding constraints on potential bull trout populations. Details of the simulation framework are described...

Great Lakes thiamine monitoring data 2021-2023 Great Lakes thiamine monitoring data 2021-2023
This data release includes thiamine concentration measurements from lake trout eggs and associated biological data (e.g., fish length, weight, sex) and capture location data (e.g., lake, coordinates, date of collection). Lake trout used in this dataset were collected during 2021-2023 from across the Great Lakes and other inland lakes such as the Finger Lakes, New York and Lake Champlain...
