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.

Debris flow probabilities of ungaged tributaries to the Colorado River in Grand Canyon, AZ Debris flow probabilities of ungaged tributaries to the Colorado River in Grand Canyon, AZ
This dataset represents 763 tributary canyons and/or watersheds adjacent to the Colorado River in Grand Canyon with associated debris flow probabilities from 2004. Also, these data include tributary canyon and/or watersheds to Glen Canyon and several smaller watersheds in Grand Canyon where debris flow data is currently unavailable. Historic probabilities of debris flow occurrence were...
SWASH Model Water Level Timeseries at Wrightsville Beach, NC during Hurricane Isaias, August 2020 SWASH Model Water Level Timeseries at Wrightsville Beach, NC during Hurricane Isaias, August 2020
This data release contains model output of water level elevation time series generated by the Simulating WAves till SHore (SWASH) model to simulate storm-induced water levels from Hurricane Isaias at Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina (NC), USA. Water levels were simulated along three different cross-shore profiles over a period of 10 hours around the peak of the storm from 2300 GMT on...
Time series of seismic velocity changes around Mauna Loa from 2012 to 2024 derived from coda wave interferometry of repeating earthquakes Time series of seismic velocity changes around Mauna Loa from 2012 to 2024 derived from coda wave interferometry of repeating earthquakes
These processed data were created to investigate seismic velocity changes associated with the period of extended unrest and eruption at Mauna Loa, Island of Hawaiʻi. Primary data (i.e., seismic waveforms) are hosted at NSF SAGE Facility (https://service.iris.edu/) and were ingested by the code CWIRE Version 1.0.0 (https://doi.org/10.5066/P13BKSJJ) to produce the data analyzed in Hotovec...
REDPy Catalogs for Mauna Loa (2012-2024) REDPy Catalogs for Mauna Loa (2012-2024)
REDPy (short for Repeating Earthquake Detector in Python) is a seismic tool for automatically detecting and grouping earthquakes based on the similarity of their waveforms into "families" of related events. It can be used in near real-time for monitoring or for research. The catalogs in this release bracket the late-2022 eruption of Mauna Loa, Island of Hawaiʻi; two separate catalogs are...
Landscape characteristics for urban gradients in United States cities across multiple scales Landscape characteristics for urban gradients in United States cities across multiple scales
This dataset contains tabular data at three scales (city, tract, and synoptic site) and related vector shapefiles (for watersheds or buffers around synoptic sites) for areas included in the Carbon in Urban River Biogeochemistry Project (CURB) to assess how social, built, and biophysical factors shape aquatic functions. The city scale included 486 urban areas in the continental United...
Slope-Relief Threshold Landslide Susceptibility Models for the United States and Puerto Rico Slope-Relief Threshold Landslide Susceptibility Models for the United States and Puerto Rico
Landslide susceptibility maps are essential tools in infrastructure planning, hazard mitigation, and risk reduction. Susceptibility maps trained in one area have been found to be unreliable when applied to different areas (Woodard et al., 2023). This limitation leads to the need for a national map that is higher resolution and rigorous, but simple enough to be applied to diverse terrains...
