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.

Seepage investigations and discharge measurements at Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve, 2021-2024 Seepage investigations and discharge measurements at Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve, 2021-2024
This data release pertains to a seepage investigation conducted in order to compliment a dye tracing study at Oregon Caves National Monument in Josephine County, Oregon. The seepage dataset includes geospatial files of discharge measurement points and zero-flow observations along with vector lines delineating losing and gaining stream reaches. Hydrologic systems in karst environments...

Simulated Snow and Meteorology Variables, Qashqadaryo Region, Uzbekistan, 1950-2023 Simulated Snow and Meteorology Variables, Qashqadaryo Region, Uzbekistan, 1950-2023
This data release contains output from a numerical snow simulation for a 166 kilometer (km) × 160 km model domain in the Qashqadaryo region of Uzbekistan. The simulation encompasses key watersheds within the region and uses SnowModel (Liston and Elder, 2006; Liston and others, 2020; Liston, 2020) to estimate the snow water resources and meteorology across the simulation domain. The...
Flynn Creek Crater Sample Collection: Drill core photos from drill core collected in 1967 and 1977-1979 Flynn Creek Crater Sample Collection: Drill core photos from drill core collected in 1967 and 1977-1979
Flynn Creek crater is a ~3.8 km diameter, >200 m deep, flat-floored impact structure that formed ~360 Ma in what is now north-central Tennessee (36°17’ N, 85°40’ W) [1-4]. Between 1967 and 1979, USGS scientist Dr. David Roddy conducted a drilling program at Flynn Creek crater, an invaluable terrestrial analog that can be applied to the field of planetary impact cratering dynamics [5,6]...
Conventional and Global Positioning System survey data from 1975-2022 at Bald Eagle ridge, Lake County, Colorado Conventional and Global Positioning System survey data from 1975-2022 at Bald Eagle ridge, Lake County, Colorado
As part of an effort by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to better understand topographic and structural conditions that promote slow spreading and sagging of mountain ridges (Varnes and others, 1989), USGS researchers began surveying monitoring points at Bald Eagle ridge in the Sawatch Range of Colorado in 1975 (Radbruch-Hall and others, 1976; Varnes and others, 1990). Bald Eagle ridge...
Time-series measurements of oceanographic data collected in the nearshore zone offshore of Marconi Beach, Wellfleet, MA, December 9, 2024 to March 10, 2025 Time-series measurements of oceanographic data collected in the nearshore zone offshore of Marconi Beach, Wellfleet, MA, December 9, 2024 to March 10, 2025
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center deployed a four-legged bottom landing frame (nanopod) containing oceanographic instruments to collect measurements of winter wave conditions directly offshore of Marconi Beach in Wellfleet, MA. Supplementary sediment samples were collected to characterize grain size. Marconi Beach is the site of ongoing...
