Data

This dataset provides information collected at three stream monitoring sites on the lower Yakima River in Washington State from June 2018 through September 2020 by the U.S. Geological Survey. Sample locations included the Yakima River at Prosser, WA (USGS Station, 12509489), the Yakima River at Kiona, WA (USGS Station, 12510500), and the Yakima River at Van Giesen bridge near Richland...

The Quillayute River Basin in northwestern Washington consists of the Quillayute River and the river systems of its major tributaries, the Dickey, Sol Duc, and Bogachiel Rivers. With a drainage area of 629 square miles, the Quillayute River Basin provides important habitat for 23 distinct runs of anadromous steelhead and salmon, representing one of the largest and most productive...

This dataset contains a table with temperature (°C), raw electrical conductivity (μS/cm), and salinity (psu) measured in Beaufort Sea, Alaska, Lagoons during summers 2017-2019.

These data were collected by a SonTek Argonaut-XR 3000-MHz 3D acoustic Doppler current meter (ADCM) that was mounted on an approximately 75-pound mounting plate. The ADCM was deployed on the bottom of River Raisin at approximately 41.899978°N, -83.353548°E and took measurements from August 17-September 13, 2023. These data were collected in cooperation with U.S. Environmental Protection...

This data release provides water-quality data collected and analyzed by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) during 1972 through 2020. This data release includes a discrete water-quality concentration dataset (total dissolved solids, chloride, ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, nitrate plus nitrite, total Kjeldahl nitrogen, orthophosphate...

Our data include detailed information about 12 species of Anatidae broods encountered on four study areas in Maine during 1977–1994 as one dataset. The second dataset provides the characteristics of the wetlands which were monitored during the studies. The third dataset enumerates the effort (such as numbers of visits to each wetland) to determine numbers of broods and the number of...

Effective waterfowl management relies on the collection of relevant demographic data to inform land management decisions; however, some types of data are difficult to obtain. For waterfowl, brood surveys are difficult to conduct because wetland habitats often obscure ducklings from being visually assessed. Here, we used Unoccupied Aerial Systems (UAS) to assess what wetland habitat...

This data release (DR) is the update of the U.S. Geological Survey - ScienceBase data release Bera (2023), with the processed data for the period October 1, 2021, through September 30, 2022. This data release describes the watershed data management (WDM) database SC22.WDM. The precipitation data are collected from a tipping-bucket rain-gage network and the hydrologic data (stage and...

Continuous water level measurements were made at 8 sites along a gradient in wave exposure on west Whidbey Island, Western Washington to characterize the wave climate and validate models of wave propagation.

These datasets provide weekly differences of early estimates of 2024 fractional cover for exotic annual grass (EAG) that were released from April to late June. The EAG estimates were publicly released within 7-13 days of the latest satellite observation used for that version. Each weekly release contained five fractional cover maps along with their corresponding confidence maps for: 1) a...

This dataset contains all the layers associated with U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Restoration Assessment (GLCWRA) initiative for the Western Lake Erie Restoration Assessment (WLERA) which aims to identify and rank coastal areas with the greatest potential for wetland habitat restoration. Each layer has a unique contribution to the identification of restorable...
