Revised extents of neighborhood and climate population clusters for greater sage-grouse, western U.S. Revised extents of neighborhood and climate population clusters for greater sage-grouse, western U.S.
The authors and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) have expanded the greater sage-grouse (GRSG [also referenced as sage-grouse]; Centrocercus urophasianus) hierarchical population units/clusters to ensure inclusion of the proposed revisions (2025) of the BLM habitat management areas (HMAs) in future management implementation decisions. The authors used a consolidated dataset of all GRSG...
Data from the Study of Stream Corridor Sources of Suspended Sediment and Phosphorus in Plum Creek, Wisconsin, 2016-2018 Data from the Study of Stream Corridor Sources of Suspended Sediment and Phosphorus in Plum Creek, Wisconsin, 2016-2018
Geomorphic assessment and sediment data were collected in 2017 for an integrated sediment fingerprinting and stream corridor-based sediment budget study of Plum Creek, a tributary to the Lower Fox River and Green Bay, Wisconsin. Data were collected for 30 stream reaches and include quantitative and qualitative measurements of channel geometry, bank and gully erosion, soft bed sediment...
Demonstrating the Effects of Subgrid Corrections in an Ocean-scale Hydrodynamic Model: Inputs and Outputs Demonstrating the Effects of Subgrid Corrections in an Ocean-scale Hydrodynamic Model: Inputs and Outputs
This data release contains model inputs and outputs of water level elevations resulting from deterministic simulations along the South Atlantic Bight (SAB), which extends roughly from Cape Hatteras, North Carolina to the Upper Florida Keys, Florida, USA. For further information regarding model input generation and visualization of model output topography and bathymetry, refer to Woodruff...
Gene transcription in Pacific Salmon Gene transcription in Pacific Salmon
This dataset contains gene transcription results for Pacific salmon occupying freshwater habitats in various Alaskan watersheds. This data release includes two tables: 1) gene transcription results from muscle samples collected from Pacific salmon occupying freshwater habitats ("pacificSalmon_geneTranscription_values.csv"), and 2) a data dictionary providing the names, definitions, and...
Estimates of microcystin concentration and content using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay on samples collected from experiments on cyanobacteria in the Great Lakes and field data from the Mississippi River Estimates of microcystin concentration and content using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay on samples collected from experiments on cyanobacteria in the Great Lakes and field data from the Mississippi River
From 2017-2019, the Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center (UMESC) analyzed microcystin concentrations in samples collected from three different studies. The first study was on the movement and distribution of invasive carp (Bighead Carp, Silver Carp, Grass Carp) in the upper Mississippi River between lock and dam 16 and lock and dam 19. Samples were collected from May through...
Greater white-fronted goose Anser albifrons habitat use in Louisiana in winter, 2016-2019 (ver. 2.0, December 2025) Greater white-fronted goose Anser albifrons habitat use in Louisiana in winter, 2016-2019 (ver. 2.0, December 2025)
Greater White-fronted Geese Anser albifrons breed in Arctic habitats in North America and winter in the California Central Valley, Mexico and southern United States. Louisiana historically provided winter habitat to a large portion of the Greater White-fronted Goose population in North America. We used global positioning system (GPS) neck collars to monitor 78 Greater White-fronted Geese...

This dataset contains mineral chemistry data collected for bastnasite and other rare earth carbonate minerals from the Mountain Pass rare earth element deposit, California, USA. See related primary publication for a detailed description of this dataset.
Dryland Soil Carbon in Southeast Arizona Dryland Soil Carbon in Southeast Arizona
Increasing soil carbon sequestration is part of a suite of approaches to reducing atmospheric carbon and addressing climate change. The soil carbon sequestration capability of a landscape is a function of ecological, edaphic, climatic, and anthropogenic factors. Landscape degradation is associated with a loss of soil carbon, but ecological restoration, alternative agricultural techniques...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) data release provides a digital geospatial database for the geologic map of the central part of the Northern Park Range, Jackson and Routt Counties, Colorado (Snyder, 1980). Attribute tables and geospatial features (points, lines, and polygons) conform to the Geologic Map Schema (USGS NCGMP, 2020) and represent the geologic map as published in USGS...
Geochemical and mineralogical data on core samples from the Lewis Shale in the USGS Cow Creek 1-21 well, eastern Washakie Basin, Wyoming Geochemical and mineralogical data on core samples from the Lewis Shale in the USGS Cow Creek 1-21 well, eastern Washakie Basin, Wyoming
This data release contains geochemical and mineralogical laboratory results from core samples collected from the USGS Cow Creek 1-21 well. The well was drilled and cored in 2022 and targeted the Lewis Shale on the eastern edge of the Washakie Basin in Carbon County, Wyoming. The core data include results from total organic carbon (TOC) and total carbon (TC) analysis, programmed pyrolysis

This data release contains 5 Log ASCII Standard (LAS) files related to wireline geophysical logging of the USGS Cow Creek 1-21 well. The well was drilled and cored in 2022 and targeted the Lewis Shale on the eastern edge of the Washakie Basin in Carbon County, Wyoming. A comprehensive wireline geophysical logging suite and continuous core were obtained from the ground surface to...
Pearl Harbor National Memorial, O‘ahu Hawaiian Hoary bat acoustic activity and tree metric data, 2024 Pearl Harbor National Memorial, O‘ahu Hawaiian Hoary bat acoustic activity and tree metric data, 2024
We examined acoustic activity of the endangered Hawaiian hoary bat ('ōpe'ape'a; Lasiurus semotus), as well as surveyed potential roost trees at Pearl Harbor National Memorial (PERL) located on Ford Island, O‘ahu, Hawaii. The study area was located at the Ford Island Chief Petty Officer's (CPO) Bungalows Neighborhood, which covers approximately 4 acres and includes five historic CPO...
