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.

Plant association abundances and resistance and resilience covariates from six Great Basin fires
This dataset provides the plot-level data of the relative cover of ten different plant associations derived from a structural topic model and resistance and resilience metrics for predicting their abundances. Data comes from four different fires across the Great Basin: the 2007 Murphy Fire, 2012 Rush Fire, 2012 Holloway Fire, and the 2015 Soda Fire. Additional data utilized in the cross...
Temperature and Depth Data from Walleye Archival Data Logging Tags in Lake Erie, 2021 to 2022
This data release contains passive detection of acoustic telemetry tags that were implanted in walleye Sander vitreus to investigate habitat selection in the dimensions of depth and temperature, and seasonal cross-lake migration in Lake Erie. The data also include continuous archive records of temperature and depth that were obtained from tags that were surrendered by fishers who...
Satellite-derived shorelines and foredune toes along Minnesota Point (Duluth, MN) from 2016 to 2023
This data release contains 2 shapefiles which include 626 unique shorelines and 3 foredune toes spanning 2016 to 2023 along Minnesota Point, a 9-kilometer long bay-mouth bar at the western end of Lake Superior. Each shoreline represents the intersection line between land and water at a unique time associated with the capture of a satellite image, and these shorelines are used to examine...
Paso Robles Hydrologic Model: Future Climate Data
This digital dataset contains the gridded future climate data for the same modeled extent as the Paso Robles Groundwater Basin Model (GEOSCIENCE and Todd Groundwater, 2015). The monthly climate data for the Paso Robles Hydrologic Model are based on the Salinas and Carmel River Basins Study (SCRBS) future climate scenarios (Henson and others, 2024). SCRBS considers one baseline climate...
Hydraulic Geometry of Stream Channels in the Boston Mountains of Arkansas
In 2014, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers collaborated with the U.S. Geological Survey to develop regional hydraulic geometry curves for the Boston Mountains in Arkansas. To accomplish this, fourteen stream reaches associated with stream flow-gaging stations operated by the U.S. Geological Survey were evaluated. These study reaches had contributing drainage basin areas ranging from 0.19...
Fracture data collected at the Route 111 bypass in Windham, New Hampshire
This data release includes fracture orientation measurements and outcrop photographs collected at new road cuts along New Hampshire Route 111 in June 2014. Road cuts along the New Hampshire State Route 111 bypass in Windham, New Hampshire expose the metasedimentary Silurian Berwick Formation intruded by multiple phases of foliated to non-foliated granite to granitic pegmatite of the...
Properties of solid bitumen formed during hydrous, anhydrous, and brine pyrolysis of oil shale
Solid bitumen is widely used as a thermal proxy in source-rock reservoirs, yet its texture and presentation may be affected by varying environmental constraints during its formation, e.g., water concentration, mineral catalysis, or salinity. Herein we investigated the development of solid bitumen properties during artificial maturation using three diverse (lacustrine to marine) oil shale...
Atmospheric fallout radionuclide data for soil cores from four uranium mine sites, Mohave County, Arizona, November 2018
The data represent sediment depth profiles of gamma-emitting radionuclides cesium-137 (Cs-137), lead-210 (Pb-210), lead-214 (Pb-214), and bismuth-214 (Bi-214) in native soil locations around four mineralized sites in Mohave County, Arizona. The four sites represent breccia pipe uranium deposits in the Grand Canyon Region in various lifecycle stages of mining: EZ2 complex (exploration)...
Monthly twelve-digit hydrologic unit code aggregations of the National Hydrologic Model Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System modeling application for Alaska for the USGS National Water Availability Assessment, 1980-21
This data release contains 15 variables from the National Hydrologic Model Infrastructure with the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (NHM-PRMS) modeling application forced with Daymet version 4 (Koczot and others, 2025) from 1980 through 2021 that are summarized to a monthly time step and a twelve-digit hydrologic unit code for the spatial extent of Alaska.The following flux and...
Percent volumes of insects consumed by the western small-footed bat (Myotis ciliolabrum) captured at Chaco Culture National Historical Park, El Malpais National Monument and El Malpais National Conservation Area, Mesa Verde National Park, Pecos National H
This dataset represents the date and related identification number for each guano sample collected from the western small-footed bat (Myotis ciliolabrum) captured at Chaco Culture National Historical Park, El Malpais National Monument and El Malpais National Conservation Area, Mesa Verde National Park, Pecos National Historical Park, Guadalupe Mountains National Park, and Capulin Volcano...
Crosswalk table between 12-digit hydrologic unit code (HUC12) and hydrologic region boundaries
This data release contains a crosswalk between subwatersheds (12-digit hydrologic unit codes; hereafter, HUC12s) and hydrologic regions (sometimes called "Van Metre regions"). This crosswalk allows for data at the HUC12 scale to be summarized regionally. Hydrologic regions are boundaries of hydrologically distinct areas modified from hydrologic subregions (4-digit Hydrologic units; HUC4s...
Streamflow Statistics Based on Data through Water Year 2021 for Selected Streamgages in and near Wyoming
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Wyoming Water Development Office, developed streamflow statistics for active (through September 30, 2021) and discontinued USGS streamgages in and near Wyoming with 10 or more years of daily mean streamflow record. Streamflow at each streamgage was assessed for degree of human alteration owing to dams and diversions before...
