Data

IMPORTANT NOTE: This dataset includes spatial locations where streamflow permanence observations (continuous flow, discontinuous flow, and dry) were recorded using the FLOwPER (FLOw PERmanence) field survey available in the Survey 123 mobile data collection application. Additional information to describe the field conditions are included as part of the survey. Field observations in the...

This data release is a collection of quantitative and qualitative data for fluid inclusions in samples from the Bear Lodge alkaline complex, Wyoming. The dataset includes:microthermometry, Raman spectroscopy, noble gas spectroscopy, laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), and energy dispersive X-ray analyses of fluid inclusions. For spatial context and...

Floodplain forests are being transformed by multiple pressures, prompting widespread management and restoration efforts. It is uncertain how disturbances, including hydrologic change, and management actions will interact to influence the ecology of these threatened forests. Here, we present the results of a forest landscape model in support of an ecological study detailed in the...

This dataset is a collection of TIFF file outputs from the forest dynamic model LANDIS PRO representing projections of the density and basal area for six invasive tree/shrub species under current climate conditions (avaraged from 1980-2009) in the Ozark region of the U.S. Midwest for the year 2050. The six species included in this study are autumn olive, bush honeysuckles, Callery pear...

Coastal communities are uniquely vulnerable to sea-level rise and severe storms such as hurricanes. These events enhance the dispersion and concentration of natural and anthropogenic chemicals and pathogenic microorganisms that could adversely affect the health and resilience of coastal communities and ecosystems in subsequent years. The U.S. Geological Survey has developed the Sediment...

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...

This data release contains frequency domain electromagnetic (FDEM) data collected during discrete times between July 2019 to October 2022 near Lake Placid, NY as part of a multi-method effort to monitor the effects of different road salt treatments on groundwater and the surrounding surface water (West Branch Ausable River). The FDEM instrument used was a Geophex GEM-2; a broadband...

These data comprise the results of an analysis to 1. develop freshwater fish and mussel models using survey occurrence data, land use data, stream flow data, and stream temperature data within the Northeast United states, 2. predict the impacts of climate change on vulnerable groups of freshwater fish and mussel species, and 3. assess the potential for different management interventions...

Post-fire vegetation structure and fuel data are needed to understand how an area recovers over time. To address this need, data were collected within the perimeter of the 2000 Jasper Fire near Custer, SD, on 73 plots co-located with plots previously established by scientists to assess burn severity. Vegetation structure data were collected at these plots during two periods: July 11–17...

Post-fire vegetation structure and fuels data are essential for understanding the recovery process after major disturbances. To meet this need, 40 plots within and around the perimeter of the 2021 KNP Complex Fire were surveyed between July 12 and July 28, 2024. Data was collected on sites previously established by the U.S. Geological Survey Kings Canyon and Sequoia Field Station, as...

We established a network of 121 plots distributed within the 2020 SQF, 2020 Rattlesnake, and 2021 KNP complex fire footprints (extracted from Fire and Resource Assessment Program (FRAP), https://frap.fire.ca.gov), as well as outside the fire perimeters to provide an unburned comparison. These plots were combined from two projects: a fire and fuels study (F&F) and the USGS sequoia...

The frequency of cyanobacterial blooms appears to have increased globally in recent decades due to human induced eutrophication and climate change. Cyanobacterial blooms can produce several groups of toxins, among which microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is one of the most abundant. Effects of MC-LR on avian microbiome have not been studied and studies in laboratory murines are limited to...
