Data

The glacial deposits underlying southeastern Michigan, northeastern Indiana, and northwestern Ohio are a substantial source of water to communities, agriculture, and industry in the region. The U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, used processed data from the State-managed collections of well records to develop a hydrogeologic framework of...

This release presents data from surveys of physical and hydrologic characteristics of the Ohio River streambed and adjacent alluvial aquifer and other related information to document conditions and changes relative to water withdrawals from a series of horizontal, radial collector wells in a riverbank filtration system near Louisville, Kentucky. Surveys were completed by the U.S...

The Yuma Desalting Plant (YDP), which includes the Water Quality Improvement Center (WQIC), discharges effluent from desalted water into the Colorado River in Yuma, AZ just upstream of the Northerly International Boundary (NIB) of the United States and Mexico. Point source effluent from YDP discharges as surface flow from the Main Outlet Drain Extension II (MODE II) into the Colorado...

This data release includes rasters of riverbed grain size in select Oregon rivers where substrate size has been modeled following the approach of White and others (2025a) in which bathymetric lidar point-clouds were paired with georeferenced pebble counts to produce grain-size rasters for the Santiam River Basin (White and others, 2025b). Similar to White and others (2025b), this data...

This data release contains rasters of modeled spawning habitat for spring Chinook salmon in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon for a range of streamflows and for various river corridors. Usable habitat area for spawning spring Chinook salmon was evaluated by integrating depth and velocity outputs from two-dimensional hydraulic models and estimates of riverbed grainsize with observed and...

This data release contains rasters of modeled juvenile rearing habitat for spring Chinook salmon in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon for a range of streamflows and for various river corridors. Usable habitat area for juvenile rearing spring Chinook salmon was modeled for two size classes (fry and parr) by pairing outputs from two-dimensional hydraulic models with in-basin observations...

This data release contains two-dimensional hydraulic models and model results for tributaries to the Willamette River of northwestern Oregon. Model files and results are organized by river name, wherein each river with two-dimensional models is included as a child item within this data release. The model extent for each river corridor is separated into individual reaches that each extend

The Edwards aquifer in south-central Texas is one of the most permeable and productive aquifers in the United States and is the major source of public water supply for Bexar, Comal, Hays, Medina, and Uvalde Counties. The Edwards aquifer also supplies large quantities of water for use in agriculture, business, and industry in the region. The major artesian springs of the Edwards aquifer...

This dataset contains a 6‑class soils map (30-meter) for the Los Planes basin in Baja California Sur, Mexico. The map was generated using a digital soil mapping approach that incorporates environmental covariables following the SCORPAN (soil, climate, organisms, topography, parent material, age, and time) framework. The data release also includes a point feature class representing...

Climate often drives ungulate population dynamics, and as climates change, some areas may become unsuitable for species persistence. Unraveling the relationships between climate and population dynamics, and projecting them across time, advances ecological understanding that informs and steers sustainable conservation for species. Using pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) as an ecological...

After flooding events, the United States Geological Survey (USGS) identifies and surveys high-water marks (HWMs) to inform flood assessments, research, and water resource management. These HWMs are empirical evidence of a flood's maximum water surface elevation in a given location. The documented and surveyed HWMs are subsequently published to the USGS Flood Event Viewer for long-term...

This data release provides digital flight line data for a high-resolution airborne magnetic and radiometric survey over the southern alkaline igneous belt in south-central New Mexico. The airborne survey was funded by the Earth Mapping Resources Initiative (Earth MRI). The survey was designed by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in collaboration with the New Mexico Bureau of...
