Simulated juvenile Chinook salmon movement and growth in the Yankee Fork of the Salmon River, Idaho: Model input parameters and results Simulated juvenile Chinook salmon movement and growth in the Yankee Fork of the Salmon River, Idaho: Model input parameters and results
The growth potential and movement propensity of juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) was simulated across 16 representative reaches in the Yankee Fork of the Salmon River (YFSR), Idaho. For growth potential, we used the Aquatic Trophic Productivity model, which incorporates dynamics of the food web members and the stream-riparian conditions at each reach. Environmental...
International Manganese Samples—The Donnel Foster Hewett Collection International Manganese Samples—The Donnel Foster Hewett Collection
International manganese samples in this collection were acquired from various countries, typically by geoscientists and university professors of the corresponding region. Manganese samples from the United States were collected in the field primarily by other USGS scientists noted in the dataset. The dataset corresponds to Hewett's physical collection of manganese-bearing samples re...
Supplemental Results and Code from North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) Integrated Species Distribution Model for Tricolored Bat Supplemental Results and Code from North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) Integrated Species Distribution Model for Tricolored Bat
These data contain supplemental results and model code from the North American Bat Monitoring Program's (NABat) integrated species distribution model (iSDM) for the tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus). These data also serve as supplemental results, source data used to create figures, and model code to the companion manuscript: "Integrated distribution modeling resolves asynchrony...
Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) egg capture data from Great Lakes tributaries, 2014 & 2023-2024 Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) egg capture data from Great Lakes tributaries, 2014 & 2023-2024
The data includes dates, places, and times of sampling events for eggs of invasive Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) in tributaries to the Great Lakes in 2014, 2023 and 2024. Reference data on locations and dates sampled, gears used, and effort are included. Developmental stages for a subset of undamaged, fertilized eggs are provided.

Data supporting work to understand the impacts of 2.3.4.4b highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza virus infection on Snow Goose movement ecology Data supporting work to understand the impacts of 2.3.4.4b highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza virus infection on Snow Goose movement ecology
These data describe the prevalence of infection with and antibodies to clade 2.3.4.4b HP H5N1 in Snow Geese in the Central Valley of California, along with corresponding movement data. These data show differential outcomes of HPAI infection in this species.
Breeding shorebird surveys on the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska (2019-2022) Breeding shorebird surveys on the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska (2019-2022)
This dataset contains results from long-term monitoring of breeding shorebirds on the Coastal Plain (1002 Area) of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska. Surveys were conducted during 2019–2022 using the Arctic PRISM (Program for Regional and International Shorebird Monitoring) protocol. The sampling design employed stratified random selection of 16-ha plots across four habitat...
Earthworm, Plant and Soil Pesticide Residue Concentrations resulting from a Treated Wheat Seed Mesocosm Exposure Earthworm, Plant and Soil Pesticide Residue Concentrations resulting from a Treated Wheat Seed Mesocosm Exposure
The most common application of neonicotinoid insecticides in agriculture is through the treatment of seeds before planting. Commercially formulated seed treatments are often sold as mixtures of various pesticides, fungicides and other treatments (e.g., plant growth regulators), the effects of which in non-target organisms are not well understood. To address this data gap, we assessed the...

These data support analyses for a paired USGS manuscript that summarizes a meta-analysis of avian species and the role they play in the ecology of highly pathogenic avian influenza.
Stream temperature and fish community data upstream and downstream of an impoundment in Big Hunting Creek, Maryland Stream temperature and fish community data upstream and downstream of an impoundment in Big Hunting Creek, Maryland
This Data Release provides stream temperature data (13 sites) and fish community data (3 sites) in Big Hunting Creek, Maryland. Data were collected during summer baseflow conditions in 2023. This product supports brook trout conservation and restoration research needs identified by Maryland Department of Natural Resources. We collected temperature data with Onset ProV2 water temperature...
Towed transient electromagnetic survey data, Historic Jamestowne Island, Virginia, August 2021 Towed transient electromagnetic survey data, Historic Jamestowne Island, Virginia, August 2021
Towed transient electromagnetic (tTEM) data were acquired during August 2021 in Historic Jamestowne, which is part of Colonial National Historic Park of Virginia. Members of the U.S. Geological Survey, Hydrogeophysics Branch, and the Virginia-West Virginia Water Science Center collected approxximately 15.7 line kilometers of tTEM data along the the Tour Road in James City County...
News-reported landslide impacts in Southeast Alaska, 1990-2024 News-reported landslide impacts in Southeast Alaska, 1990-2024
1. Abstract Landslides are common across Southeast Alaska (SEAK) and have caused damages and fatalities in populated areas. Better understanding of landslide triggering conditions and impacts can inform risk reduction strategies and alerting efforts. Landslide inventory data with weekly to hourly time resolution are needed to quantify these conditions. Local news sources are a source of...
