Data and Model Archive Summaries to Support Use of Continuous Water-quality Time-series Data to Compute Total Phosphorus Concentrations and Loads for the Missouri River at St. Joseph and Hermann, Missouri, 2007–22 Data and Model Archive Summaries to Support Use of Continuous Water-quality Time-series Data to Compute Total Phosphorus Concentrations and Loads for the Missouri River at St. Joseph and Hermann, Missouri, 2007–22
This data release contains the R source code, inputs, and selected outputs associated with the turbidity-based regression models used to estimate total phosphorus concentrations and loads for the Missouri River at St. Joseph and Hermann, Missouri, for water years 2008–22. Additionally, the R source code, inputs, and selected outputs for LOADEST models used to estimate daily total...
INHABIT species potential distribution across the contiguous United States (ver. 4.0, June 2024) INHABIT species potential distribution across the contiguous United States (ver. 4.0, June 2024)
This is a dataset containing the potential distribution of 259 invasive terrestrial plant species. We developed habitat suitability models for invasive plant species selected by Department of Interior land management agencies and other managers. We applied the modeling workflow developed in Young et al. (2020, https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0229253) and adapted by Jarnevich et al....
Lake Powell extent polygons at various elevations Lake Powell extent polygons at various elevations
These data were compiled to visualize the extent of Lake Powell at various elevation levels. These data represent water surface elevations for Lake Powell at levels critical to the operation of Glen Canyon Dam, at 5 foot intervals from the "Equalization Tier" ("Full Pool") to "Dead Pool", and at maximum and minimum elevations each water year throughout Glen Canyon Dam's operating history...
Traits and Factors Catalog (TRAFAC): Non-native insects of North American forests Traits and Factors Catalog (TRAFAC): Non-native insects of North American forests
These data were compiled in support of the "Predicting the next high-impact insect invasion: Elucidating traits and factors determining the risk of introduced herbivorous insects on North American native plants" project supported by the U.S. Geological Survey John Wesley Powell Center for Analysis and Synthesis, as well as the "Forecasting high-impact insect invasions by integrating...
Geoheritage Sites of the Nation Data Release v.1 Geoheritage Sites of the Nation Data Release v.1
Geoheritage is a term which lies at the intersection of science, society, and sustainability and is applied to significant geologic features and landforms that have scientific, educational, cultural, economic, and aesthetic value. Many geologic sites have enriched society through the geoheritage values: scientific research and education, cultural significance, economic opportunities, and...
