The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers American River Watershed Common Features project (ARCF) seeks to reduce flood risk for the City of Sacramento, California, and surrounding areas and improve fish access to additional habitat. The project includes levee-remediation measures to address seepage, stability, erosion, and height concerns as well as the widening of the Sacramento Weir and Bypass...

This data release contains the output from the analysis of the intensity to human water budget modification following the standards of Weiskel and others (2007) according to hydrologic regions of the conterminous United States (CONUS) by Van Metre and others (2020). Initial water budget data were produced by Martinez and others (2026) by combining the monthly water balance from water...

This data release provides a vector digital dataset developed from the published metamorphic map on the Centennial geologic map of Vermont. This data release is a digital representation of the metamorphic map shown on the bedrock geologic map of Doll and others (1961). The original publication from 1961 was is available in as paper only. A scanned raster version of the 1961 map was...

Portions of the western U.S. are experiencing simultaneous increases in wildfire frequency, size, and intensity alongside worsening drought conditions. Despite the importance of quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) as a keystone species, drivers of wildfire in aspen forests remain relatively understudied compared to neighboring vegetation types. These data supported investigation...

Sampling stations were established by University of San Francisco (USF) in the marsh and mudflats of Morro Bay to measure elevation change and accretion rates in 2004. The stations consisted of surface elevation tables (SET) and paired marker horizons (MH), which measure cumulative elevation change and sediment accretion, respectively. There were also MH-only plots established in the...

This dataset includes field, extraction, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) data for an environmental DNA (eDNA) study conducted on barges used to transport juvenile salmon and steelhead. Water was sampled from barge holds with controlled additions of bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) inside net pens.

The Deadwood fault in the western Idaho Batholith in west-central Idaho, USA is a north-south trending zone of complex fault traces featuring minimal evidence of Quaternary movement. This data release contains luminescence and radiocarbon data from trench sediments exposed at Habit Creek and Trail Creek along the Deadwood Fault. The dataset includes 22 luminescence samples analyzed at...

This dataset contains the complete mitochondrial genomes of three black bass species: Micropterus cataractae (shoal bass), Micropterus henshalli (Alabama bass), and Micropterus punctulatus (spotted bass). These genomes were generated to address longstanding gaps in available reference data and to support conservation, biosurveillance, invasive-species management, and environmental DNA...

This data release contains the baseline water-quality dataset of 32,000 discrete surface-water-quality records compiled, harmonized, and summarized as part of a study conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the National Park Service (NPS) and the Urban Water Federal Partnership for the Lower Passaic River, for the Paterson Great Falls National Historical Park...

These data represent wind-driven sediment mass and horizontal sediment flux collected by Big Spring Number Eight (BSNE) samplers at three breccia pipe uranium mines (Arizona 1, Pinyon Plain [formerly Canyon Mine], and Pinenut) and a reference site with similar geology but no mining activity (Little Robinson Tank). All sites are located within the greater Grand Canyon region/Baaj Nwaavjo...

This dataset contains 21 traditional luminescence ages and ~900 portable optically stimulated luminescence (pOSL) measurements collected from the South Granite Mountains fault (SGMF) in central Wyoming. Traditional and portable luminescence techniques were used to help interpret colluvial wedge development, which support long recurrence intervals (13 to 68 ka) and a low late Quaternary...

In 2000 and 2008, the University of Maryland established plots within the Sierra National Forest (SNF). Fifty of these plots were resampled between August 30 and September 8, 2026, to assess how the Garnet Fire affected the ecosystem. Of the fifty plots, thirty-seven fell within the fire perimeter and thirteen were unburned. Data were collected within 10 m radius plots and include...
