Data

This data release includes time-series data from 18 monitoring stations installed in Puerto Rico following Hurricane María in 2017, which led to over 70,000 landslides across the island (Hughes and others, 2017). The first two stations were installed in July of 2018 (Smith and others, 2020) to investigate subsurface hydrologic response to rainfall and develop a quantitative link between...

Exotic annual grasses [EAG] are one of the most damaging biological stressors in western North America. Despite numerous environmental and societal impacts associated with EAG there remains a need to enhance regional monitoring capabilities to better guide management and conservation efforts. Here we provide estimates of historic and potential future trends in EAG abundance that were...

This dataset includes simulated streamflow and sediment discharge for major tributaries contributing to Clear Lake, California. Historical hourly streamflow and sediment for each tributary location were outputs from an Hydrological Simulation Program - FORTRAN (HSPF) model. The historical data is available at an hourly time step from October 1980 to March 2024. The future time series...

Data files contain the simulated mean daily environmental conditions in Lake Michigan for historical (2005, 2006, 2010, 2014, 2015, and 2016) and future (2040-2049, 2090-2099) years. Simulations were generated by integrating a series of climatic, hydrodynamic, and biological models. Each year's dataset predicts water temperature, photosynthetically active radiation, and phytoplankton...

Note: this data release has been superseded by version 2.0, available here: https://doi.org/10.5066/P14EHY3V. This dataset consists of annual raster maps of ecosystem carbon stocks, land use and land cover classes, and transition probabilities for the State of California during historical (1985-2020) and projected future (2021-2100) time periods. Data are simulation model output from the...

This dataset includes the underlying data for each figure and table, as well as the raw model output data, for the publication: Modeling interconnected minerals markets with multicommodity supply curves: examining the copper-cobalt-nickel system, published in Nature Communications.

This data release provides a vector geospatial shapefile of river and creek segments within Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma) habitat in the Noatak River drainage (DeCicco 1985) classified for metal impairment between 1986 and 2024. The impairment classifications were based on visual inspection of Landsat and Sentinel satellite imagery. Also provided are the satellite images (as raster...

This dataset consists of 529 areas of identified nickel laterite in southern Oregon and northern California, compiled in vector shapefile format from six historical publications from 1956 to 1983. Sources include state and federal projects for geologic mapping and critical mineral exploration purposes and are attributed to each polygon. Five original, georeferenced maps are included in...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Wetlands Aquatic Research Center worked alongside the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) to amalgamate over three decades of relocation trawling records. It is USACE's mission to provide safe, reliable, efficient , and environmentally sustainable waterborne transportation systems (channels, harbors, and...

This data release contains historical SnowModel outputs for the Willow Creek and Big Thompson, CO watersheds and surrounding area. Simulated outputs were produced on a 30 meter (m) geospatial grid and forced using meteorology from the National Land Data Assimilation System (NLDAS-2). These simulations used daily snow water equivalent (SWE) time-series from 13 National Resources...

During 2018, USGS staff collected debris from the floors of 30 shipping containers located in Honolulu on the island of Oʻahu and destined for Wake Atoll as part of a study to understand biosecurity risks associated with overseas transport. The debris was sown in grow trays and monitored for plant germination for seven months in 2020-2021. The datasets for this project include: a list of...

This is a dataset summarizing filtering criteria and rapid risk assessments for ~25,000 species undertaken during a data-driven horizon scan of imported fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. The files represented in this dataset are the following: 1) 'species_filtering_metadata_table.xlsx' is the tabular summary of all intake list species names and the reason for inclusion...
