Data

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) supports multiple efforts to understand and predict storm impacts to our nation’s coastlines . The first infrastructure line is defined as the seaward boundary of the first row of structures or roads in a coastal area and can be used to assess coastal vulnerability. The first infrastructure line as defined in this dataset represents a cross shore...

This data release provides continuous water quality measurements from five sites in different landscapes within the Nellie Juan River Basin, Alaska. For each site there are six to seven tables of water quality data: dissolved oxygen (DO), fluorescent dissolved organic matter (fDOM), pH, specific conductance, turbidity, water temperature, and water surface height.

This dataset includes freshwater drum age data from five study reaches of the Mississippi River and one study reach from the Illinois River as presented in the manuscript Life history traits and population dynamics of Freshwater Drum across large river gradients. Any use of trade, firm, or product names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S...

Management of Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon Idella) has become of great interest to fisheries managers throughout multiple watersheds where they have become established. Grass Carp baits have been tested as part of an integrated pest management plan to aggregate fish and increase catchability. However, the habitats, water depth, and structures used by Grass Carp remain poorly...

The study compared the survival of zebra mussels and benthic macroinvertebrates after a 5-day treatment with carbon dioxide infusion under a tarp and a benthic mat. The study was conducted on Loon Lake, Benzie County, Michigan within Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. The data include water quality (dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature) and water chemistry, zebra mussel mortality and...

The US Geological Survey's Upper Midwest Environmental Sciences Center, in coordination with the US Fish and Wildlife Service's (USFWS) Branch of Migratory Bird Surveys, worked to develop, survey, and deploy an advanced aerial photography boresight in the town of Bassville Park, Florida. The intention of this boresight is to provide an extensive array of high-accuracy ground control...
