Toxic baiting is a primary method used to suppress many invasive species, including the brown treesnake (Boiga irregularis) in Guam. Based on limited alternative approaches to assess tool efficacy in snake removal, bait take is often used as a proxy for snake removal, despite evidence that non-targets remove baits in a spatially heterogeneous manner. Using photographic validation, we...

The yǻyaguak (Mariana swiftlet; Aerodramus bartschi) is an endangered cave-nesting species historically found on Guam and the southern Mariana Islands, Micronesia. The population on Guam has been severely impacted by the introduction of the brown treesnake (Boiga irregularis). We analyzed nest attendance behavior derived from near-infrared videography at the colonies at Mahlac and...

This data release included data and metadata documenting morphological measurements and sex of Brown Treesnakes (Boiga irregularis; BTS) in 18 sites spanning six habitat types in Guam collected between 2010 and 2012 including measurements of relevant reproductive structures.

We experimentally controlled brown treesnakes (Boiga irregularis) in a 5 ha study site on Guam and monitored extant lizards for a response to snake suppression. We then used functional response in extant lizards to snake suppression as a trigger to initiate reintroductions of three extirpated lizard species, with different activity patterns or microhabitat uses. These represent data from

This pilot study was intended to test whether Globorotalia truncatulinoides (G. truncatulinoides) and Globorotalia menardii (G. menardii) specimens could be successfully harvested from offshore plankton tow samples and kept alive in a laboratory at the U.S Geological Survey St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (USGS SPCMSC). The methodologies and resources which were used to...

This dataset includes wetland habitat measurements, surrounding land cover metrics, and waterbird abundance and diversity during 240 surveys of 117 individual wetland units enrolled in the California Waterfowl Habitat Program. This dataset was generated from wetland surveys conducted in the Sacramento Valley, San Joaquin Valley, and Suisun Marsh in 2022 and 2023.

We conducted a fluvial experiment to identify how mussel shells along river size gradients vary morphologically and respond to different flow regimes. Using individual Fusconaia flava mussels collected from upper and lower reaches of the Gasconade River in central Missouri, USA, we conducted hydraulic flume experiments to quantify burrow position and behavior response to changing flow...

This dataset contains genotypes from 148 Harbison's dun skipper (Euphyes vestris harbisoni) collected in San Diego and Orange County, California (USA). Genomic markers were generated using the 2RAD restriction-associated DNA sequencing protocol, aligned to a reference genome of Euphyes dion (genome assembly GCA_018251475.1) and analyzed using Stacks v2.53. The genotypes for all samples...

To support the development of more accurate hurricane coastal impact models, we created a dataset containing an inventory of information sources of hard shoreline structures — including seawalls, groins, bulkheads, and breakwaters — for each U.S. state along the Gulf of America and Atlantic coasts. The shoreline structure inventory was developed initially from internet searches of open...

The Highland Lakes are a chain of five reservoirs (Lake Buchanan, Inks Lake, Lake Lyndon B. Johnson, Lake Marble Falls, and Lake Travis) on the Colorado River of central Texas that are collectively managed by the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA). Since 2013 the LCRA has used a combination of Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT, version 2005 [Neitsch and others, 2005] or 2009...

This data release contains inputs for and outputs from hydrologic simulations for the Hawai‘i (HI) domain using the Precipitation Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) version 5.2.1.1 for the precalibration, by Hydrologic Response Unit (byHRU) release, and by Point Of Interest Observation (byPOIobs) release using the USGS National Hydrologic Model infrastructure (NHM; Regan and others, 2018)...

This data release comprises a collection of high-resolution environmental raster data for the Hawaiian Islands, developed to support conservation planning and ecological research. The collection includes both 30-meter and 10-meter resolution GeoTIFFs with topographical variables (elevation, aspect, slope, hillshade, and geomorphon landform classification), as well as complementary...
