Flood Frequency Data for Selected Streamgages in the Mendenhall River Basin, Alaska, 1966–2023 Flood Frequency Data for Selected Streamgages in the Mendenhall River Basin, Alaska, 1966–2023
This data release provides the source data and results of a flood frequency analysis for sites in the Mendenhall River Basin, Alaska, that was conducted using USGS PeakFQ software (Veilleux and others, 2014; Flynn and others, 2006). Data are provided for two streamgages that had at least 10 years of annual peak-flow record. The data include streamgage information, PeakFQ input (.txt and...
Respiration and Clearance Rate Data from Subadult Fatmucket (Lampsilis siliquoidea) at Two Different Temperatures Respiration and Clearance Rate Data from Subadult Fatmucket (Lampsilis siliquoidea) at Two Different Temperatures
This data release contains respiration and clearance rate data collected from laboratory experiments. Fatmucket mussels (Lampsilis siliquoidea) were placed in sealed containers to determine their oxygen consumption and excretion rates at two different environmentally relevant temperatures. Mussels were then placed into containers with food to determine how quickly they consume 2-60...
Pre-restoration orthomosaic and elevation products for Erie Ponds at Duluth, Minnesota, August 2020 Pre-restoration orthomosaic and elevation products for Erie Ponds at Duluth, Minnesota, August 2020
The orthoimagery, digital surface model and point cloud presented here document conditions at Erie Ponds of the St. Louis River Area of Concern in Duluth, Minnesota in August 2020, prior to planned ecological restoration. Aerial images were collected using a DJI Phantom with FC6310 sensor at a nominal elevation of approximately 100 meters above the surface of the lake water. Data were...

Macroseismic Intensity Dataset in Western North America Macroseismic Intensity Dataset in Western North America
A new dataset for macroseismic intensity from crustal earthquakes in the Western United States is developed by combining the USGS Did You Feel It? (DYFI) data set with historical intensity data (Atkinson et al., 2014; Salditch et al., 2020). The metadata compiled for the data set includes the earthquake magnitude, rupture distance, time-averaged shear-wave velocity in the upper 30 m...

Parturition Analyses based on GPS Collar Videos from Female Caribou of the Porcupine and Western Arctic Herds Parturition Analyses based on GPS Collar Videos from Female Caribou of the Porcupine and Western Arctic Herds
Adult female caribou from the Porcupine herd (PCH; 2018-2023) and Western Arctic herd (WAH; 2021, 2023) were fitted with GPS video collars (Vertex Plus, Vectronic Aerospace; 9 sec videos every 20-30 min) to assess parturition, neonate survival (birth through 30 June), and antler shedding. We used video data to validate antler- and movement-based methods for estimating reproduction in...
