This data release includes geochronological data for the Airport East trench site (40.795359, -111.950438) on the Taylorsville fault of the West Valley fault zone (WVFZ). The WVFZ comprises intrabasin faults in the hanging wall of the Wasatch fault zone in the northern part of Salt Lake Valley, Utah. Samples for radiocarbon and luminescence dating were collected from two paleoseismic...

Field observations of surface rupture extent and fault displacement are critical to improving our understanding of rupture processes in the 6 February 2023 earthquakes in the Kahramanmaraş region of Türkiye. This data release includes two primary datasets depicting the 2023 moment magnitude (Mw) 7.8 Pazarcık, Türkiye earthquake rupture: 1) surface rupture mapping (lines) and 2)...

These data representing performance scores of alternative water management strategies have been compiled by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to support the development of a research plan by the California Department of Water Resources (CDWR) and California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to improve their decision-making in relation to the State Water Project (SWP) in 2026. The...

Abstract This data release includes a list of high-priority hazardous faults and associated spatial data (regional polygons and buffered fault traces) for the Intermountain West (IMW) region of the United States. These are the top five faults or regions of concern per IMW state, based on the 2025 (version 1.0) meeting of the Basin and Range Province Earthquake Working Group. In general...

This data release includes measurements of properties from short (

This data release contains three datasets for the Pitcher's thistle (Cirsium pitcheri) reintroduction experiment, started in 1994, at the Portage Lakefront unit (formerly called Ogden Dunes), Indiana Dunes National Park, Porter County, Indiana. This plant species is a Federally threatened monocarpic perennial plant endemic to the sand dunes of the western Great Lakes. There are three csv...

The Louisiana State Legislature established the Coastal Wetlands Planning, Protection and Restoration Act (CWPPRA) to conserve, restore, create and enhance Louisiana's coastal wetlands. Restoration plans developed under CWPPRA require evaluating the effectiveness of each project in achieving long-term solutions to coastal wetlands loss. This data set includes geospatial data for the Lake...

This dataset contains presence/absence records for buffalofishes sampled at 46 unique sites in the lower Red River catchment of Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas during 2021-2023. Each site was surveyed 1-3 times during high-falling hydrographs (April - September). Survey and site associated environmental data are also included. Survey-associated data includes sampling effort, water...

The Northern Rocky Mountain Science Center in West Glacier, MT, in collaboration with Montana State University, collected liquid water content measurements at Bridger Bowl Ski Area, MT, during March and April 2025. Forecasting wet slab avalanches remains one of the most demanding challenges in operational avalanche forecasting. A key obstacle is the difficulty of observing and...

This dataset contains a systematic compilation of catch-and-release mortality estimates for freshwater fishes in lotic (riverine) environments extracted from published studies spanning 1978-2022. We reviewed 74 lotic catch-and-release studies across six biogeographic realms, 30 freshwater ecoregions and eight major habitat types, and derived 76 quantitative mortality estimates from 50 of...

This data release contains model output from 640 model simulations of volcanic ash transport during the 26ka Oruanui eruption at Taupo Volcano, New Zealand. The simulations were run as part of a study (Mattin et al., in review) that reports the discovery of Oruanui ash in three ice cores in Antarctica. The simulations helped constrain the set of conditions under which particles of a...

From 2021-2023, fragments of the mesophotic octocorals Swiftia exserta and Thesea nivea were collected from the continental shelf offshore from Texas to Florida and transported to a federal facility in Florida. Multiyear spawning allowed for in-depth analysis of spawning periodicity, egg development, larval behavior, settlement rate, and substrate preference. In addition, we determined...
