Data

This data release provides model inputs and outputs for a model that predicts redox conditions in groundwater in the contiguous United States. Input variables describe the hydrology, soils, geology, and hydrologic position of groundwater sample locations. The data release accompanies a journal article that describes model development and applications (Tesoriero_and_others_2023).

The primary habitats for insular mole skinks in Florida are sand beaches, beach berms, and dunes, making them particularly vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR) and storm surge. We used the most recent SLR projections, high resolution lidar-based digital elevation models, a combination of a comprehensive land cover and hand-digitized aerial imagery, and the latest storm surge simulations to...

In March 2024, the U.S. Geological Survey New Mexico Water Science Center (NMWSC) and Idaho Water Science Center (IDWSC), in cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (USBR), completed bathymetric and topographic surveys on the San Juan River near Farmington, NM at the USBR Navajo Gallup Water Supply Project (NGWSP) intake and outfall structure. The bathymetric and topographic data...

Modeled projections for deep decarbonization require large amounts of solar energy, which may compete with other land uses such as agriculture, urbanization, and conservation of natural lands. Existing capacity expansion models do not integrate land use land cover change (LULC) dynamics into projections. We explored the interaction between projected LULC and solar photovoltaic (PV)...

Evaluation of the MSFC Facsimile Camera System as a Tool for extraterrestrial geologic exploration

This data release contains an international compilation of 656 peak discharge estimates of floods and runoff-generated debris flows. The data (“DimensionlessDischarge.csv” and “CrossSections.csv”) were obtained from the literature and measured in the study Cavagnaro and others (2024). The dataset also includes information about flow depth, flow type (flood or debris flow), flow cross...

This is an examination methods of correlation used to determine the age of craters.

This interpolated ground-water level altitude product, for Monroe County, WV, was derived from ground-water-level data obtained from a U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) synoptic survey of 257 ground-water wells during October 23, 2017 through September 19, 2019, and selected points from the National Hydrography Dataset (NHD) to represent equal-altitude contour lines of ground-water levels in...

This data release contains fractional intersectional weights used to crosswalk data from the National Water Use Program to the National Integrated Water Availability Assessment (IWAAs) projects. The Watershed Boundary Dataset (WBD; https://www.usgs.gov/national-hydrography/watershed-boundary-dataset) is a companion dataset to the National Hydrography Dataset and contains polygons that...

Microbial biofilm communities are composed of fungi, bacteria, and phytoplankton taxonomic groups (e.g., cyanobacteria, diatoms, and chlorophytes), which inhabit the surface of intertidal mudflats. Such biofilms have critical roles in shorebird diets, mudflat stabilization, primary productivity, and carbon storage. These raster datasets represent the presence, nutritional quality...

As a low-lying island nation, the Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) is at the forefront of exposure to climate change impacts, including, primarily, inundation (coastal flooding). Increased water levels can stem from episodic events (storm surge, wave run-up, king tides) or from chronic conditions (long term sea-level rise). Land elevation is the primary geophysical variable that...

The Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources and Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency conducted observations onboard commercial fishing vessels. During these observations total lengths were collected from a subset of that capture which we have used to develop a length-based stock assessment of invasive carp. The first dataset represent harvest from the invasive carp harvest...
