These data are satellite image-derived, classification maps of tamarisk (Tamarisk spp.) along the Colorado River in Grand Canyon National Park from river km 315 to 363, approximately from Parashant Canyon to Diamond Creek tributaries. The classification maps are published in TIF raster format. Two maps are published: 1) a classification of healthy, defoliated, and tamarisk canopy dieback...

These data are from joint visual encounter and environmental DNA (eDNA) surveys conducted for northwestern pond turtles (Actinemys marmorata) in streams on privately-owned timberlands in northern California.

Here we provide public access to two mitochondrial DNA sequence alignments, multi-locus microsatellite DNA genotypes, morphometric measurements and details on all specimens utilized in Morrison et al., 2021 (In press).

Data were collected in the Sacramento River Deep Water Ship Channel (West Sacramento, CA) in support of a whole-ecosystem experiment investigating whether phytoplankton production and biomass would respond to nitrate additions, which could potentially be exported to food-limited regions in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The experiment was conducted from July 2 to September 18, 2019.

This data release focuses on nutrient and sediment concentrations, loads, and yields at USGS surface and subsurface-tile edge-of-field (EOF) agricultural monitoring sites in Great Lakes States. Water quality and rainfall metrics are summarized by individual flow events to evaluate the contribution of EOF losses to headwater stream networks in agricultural landscapes. USGS EOF sites are...

This data release includes data processing scripts, data products, and associated metadata for a study investigating trends in Mississippi River (MR) nitrogen and phosphorus loads to the Gulf of Mexico. This data release consists of three main components: 1) Nitrogen and...

Data supporting the article, "Nutrient limitation of benthic algae in streams: integrating laboratory bioassays, field experiments, and field data." Datasets include from a battery of laboratory and in situ nutrient limitation tests in streams in the upper Snake River basin, Idaho. Nutrient limitation bioassays of stream water used the green algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata...

Nitrogen and phosphorus losses from agricultural areas have impacted the water quality of downstream rivers, lakes, and oceans. As a result, investment in the adoption of agricultural best management practices (BMPs) has grown but assessments of their effectiveness at large spatial scales have been sparse. This study applies regional Spatially Referenced Regression On Watershed...

For State agencies and other water-resources managers, determining which waterbodies to allocate limited funds for protection and restoration while also maximizing cost benefit is challenging. This data release contains trophic state designations determined from secchi depth, and concentrations of chlorophyll a and microcystin at 232 lakes and reservoirs having a surface area of greater...

In cooperation with Dallas Water Utilities (DWU), the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) measures nutrient and major-ion concentrations in selected reservoirs in north Texas. This data release documents the results from water-quality samples collected from Ray Hubbard Lake, Grapevine Lake, Ray Roberts Lake, and Lake Lewisville during 2016 -18. The study began in water year 2016 (WY16) with...
