Data

Groundwater discharge points to coastal waters can be identified and quantified using natural electrical and temperature data. In August 2022, U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected water-borne electromagnetic induction and temperature along selected transects within Hen Cove on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, following a spatial survey of bed sediment temperature. Handheld thermal infrared...

This dataset contains 253 samples from 11 occurrences of Chloropyron molle subsp. molle, and 3 occurrences of Chloropyron molle hispidum. Genomic markers were generated from ddRAD loci and analyzed using the Stacks v2.60 pipeline. The genotypes for all samples are provided in a VCF file with 40,707 independent loci . A companion sample data file is provided with sample names, and...

The Rare Plant Occurrences geodatabase is an element occurrence data system with about 10,000 records of rare plant observations on the 6 northernmost California Channel Islands. It is a live database created with the purpose of bringing together in one space all discoverable historic and current information on the localities of about 180 rare and sensitive plants of the northern Channel...

This dataset includes information on detections of Bachman's Sparrow, Northern Bobwhite, and Red-cockaded Woodpecker at 161 locations in Georgia, USA. In addition to detections of birds and corresponding detection covariates (date, time, temperature, and observer), habitat metrics derived from satellite imagery and on-the-ground vegetation measurements are included.

The products presented here document conditions at the Little Saint Francis River chat pile restoration site near Fredericktown, Missouri in July 2019. Imagery was collected shortly after the initiation of restoration actions. Images were collected using low-altitude flights of unoccupied aerial systems (UAS, or “drones”) and processed using structure-from-motion techniques to generate...

This is an update to a previously archived data set, which is available at https://doi.org/10.13020/4zwr-t415. Here, additional sites for 2021, and additional data for 2022 and 2023 are given. There will be no further updates. 570 station occupations occurred along Lake Superior’s southwest shoreline where data were collected from Lake Superior and its watershed in the region generally...

Coastal wetlands store carbon in their soils. Carbon is produced by emergent biomass and in-situ root growth, as well as deposited through sedimentation. Burial of aboveground carbon within soils and disruption of long-term soil carbon storage are both influenced by the fauna present in coastal wetlands. Data were used to test the hypothesis that the American Alligator (Alligator...

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 Bangor, Maine. The intention of this boresight is to provide an extensive array of high-accuracy ground control points for the

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), deployed RQ-30 surface velocimetry sensors (hereinafter referred to as “RQ-30 sensors”) made by Sommer Messtechnik to collect radar gage-height data, cross section area, surface velocity, learned surface velocity, discharge, and learned discharge at 80 streamgages located in stream...

This data release contains a CSV dataset of the likelihood of sapling recruitment based on abundance of seedlings height classes and other stand and site-level factors. Maps accompany the CSV on how the relationship between temperature and relative survival and seedling/sapling abundance varies by size class for ten tree species in the northeastern and midwestern USA, and can be used to...

This data release contains the two intermediary variables (processed lake temperature prediction feather files and bioenergetic metrics CSV), model code in R script used to produce the outputs, and bioenergetics model prediction feather files for a set of fish bioenergetics models under current and future temperature conditions at 337 large lakes.

This dataset consists of trace organic contaminant concentrations and bacteria counts in wastewater effluents, and observed responses in fish exposed to effluents. The study was conducted from April to September 2022 at a facility located in Hutchinson, Minnesota. Nine pairs of primary-treated, activated sludge secondary treated, and membrane bioreactor secondary treated wastewater were
