Data

This digital dataset includes 266 samples from 208 groundwater wells and 481 samples of produced water from 408 sites (including 199 wells) located within 3 miles of the Edison, Mountain View and Ant Hill Oil Fields in Kern County, California. Historical geochemistry data were compiled from multiple data sources for selected water-quality indicators, major and minor ions, nutrients...

This data package includes 17,014 pairs of raster geotiffs. Each pair is made up of two geotiff rasters derived from historical observations from Landsat satellites (04-09) over the Yukon, Kuskokwim, and Tanana rivers in Alaska. One raster reports estimated mid-day water surface temperature (ST) in degrees Celsius (deg_Cc). The second raster reports the surface temperature quality...

The dataset consists of two csv files one for home range and net displacement analysis for adult snakes with at least 20 locations collected during the study period and one for the analysis of movement metrics for all adult snakes in the study. The home range data contains the calculated 100 percent and 95 percent minimum convex polygons (MCP) and 95 percent adaptive local convex hull (a...

In 2016, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, collected horizontal-to-vertical seismic soundings at 31 locations in the Owasco Inlet valley, Cayuga and Tompkins Counties, New York to help determine thickness of the unconsolidated deposits. The HVSR technique, commonly referred to as the passive-seismic method, is...

From 2010 through 2019, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, collected horizontal-to-vertical seismic soundings at 100 locations in upstate New York and 1 location in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania to evaluate the technique (control-point measurements) and to support aquifer-mapping projects (Heisig, 2012, 2015)...

From 2016 through 2018, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation, collected horizontal-to-vertical seismic soundings at 71 locations in the major valleys in the Oneonta area, Otsego and Delaware Counties, New York to help determine thickness of the unconsolidated deposits and the bedrock surface elevation. The HVSR...

The dataset focusing on research publications related to the American horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus) and ecological studies over multiple decades. The dataset contains detailed information about individual research publications, including: Year and Decade of publication. Publication Title and a Link to access the document. Classification of publications based on their relation to...

In 2017, Hurricane Maria triggered widespread landsliding in Puerto Rico. Published landslide inventories from Hurricane Maria (Bessette-Kirton and others, 2019; Baxstrom and others, 2021a, 2021b; Einbund and others, 2021a, 2021b) provided detailed mapping, including 2919 locations of headscarp points, travel distance lines, source areas, and landslide-affected areas (combined source and...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected field survey data and developed one-dimensional U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Hydrologic Engineering Center’s River Analysis System (HEC-RAS) hydraulic models for selected stream crossing sites in the Squannacook River Basin, north-central Massachusetts. A Geographic Information System (GIS) was developed to derive model input data from...

Multibeam and sidescan sonar were collected for a total of 15 sites in the North Arm, Maxwell Bay, and St. Albans Bay of Lake Minnetonka, Minnesota, to determine whether hydroacoustics could be used in turbid rivers and lakes as a method of rapid detection for invasive zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) infestations. Hydroacoustic data were collected in June, August, and the end of...

These data were derived from hydroacoustic data collected by uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs) and powered research vessels in Lake Superior in 2022. The powered vessels overtook the USVs to study fish avoidance of survey vessels during traditional acoustic surveys. The water column was divided into four depth groups for analysis. Each USV transect was binned into 30-sec intervals and...

This data release includes six months of hydroacoustic data collected during the 2023 water year, starting October 1, 2022 and ending April 11, 2023. Data were collected at four stations that are part of a discrete and continuous monitoring project in embayments on Long Island Sound to support nutrient management activities in Connecticut. The data were collected by the U.S. Geological...
