Data

Groundwater samples were collected from 60 public supply wells in the Colorado Plateaus principal aquifer. Water quality evaluations of groundwater for drinking water at public supply depths were made with the purpose of summarizing the current quality of source water (that is, untreated water) from public supply wells using two types of assessments; (1) status: an assessment that...

The Red River basin is one of several national "focus area studies" in the U.S. Geological Survey National Water Census. The objective of the National Water Census is to provide nationally-consistent base layers of well-documented data that account for water availability and use nationally. A focus area study (FAS) is a stakeholder-driven assessment of water availability in river basins...

The U.S Geological Survey (USGS) St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center (SPCMSC) conducted an ellipsoidally referenced survey using a multibeam echosounder within Grand Bay and Point Aux Chenes Bay, Alabama/Mississippi May 7-10, 2019. The survey is a part of the Estuarine and Marsh Geology Research Project (EMRG) which focuses on evaluating the linkage between marsh shoreline...

Airborne electromagnetic (AEM) and magnetic survey data were collected during April and May 2019 along 1,467 line-kilometers in the San Juan-Silverton Caldera complex, Colorado, in the Southern Rocky Mountain Volcanic Field. Data were acquired by Geotech, Ltd. with the versatile time-domain electromagnetic (VTEM) system together with a Geometrics optically pumped cesium vapor...

This dataset includes annual encrusting organism (oyster, mussel, barnacle) counts and density (ind m-2), and oyster shell height (mm) data for five bio-engineered reef designs: OysterbreakTM (OB), Wave Attenuating Device (WAD), Reef Ball (rows of two, RFB2; rows of three, RFB3), ReefBLK? (RBL), and ShoreJAX (JAX). Data were collected during winter months (i.e., December-January) in 2017...

In cooperation with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, and the Susquehanna River Basin Commission, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) calculated over 20 different basin characteristics as part of preparing the Pennsylvania StreamStats 2020 application. These datasets are raster

Data were collected in 2017 by researchers at the USGS, USDA-ARS, and University of Wyoming on the food webs of plants, prairie dogs, arthropods, and birds in the Thunder Basin National Grassland. Data were collected from 87 sites in order to parameterize a structural equation model linking prairie dog impacts to changes in vegetation, arthropods, and birds. Abiotic information such as...

Data release including concentrations of cyanotoxins and phytoplankton community composition data for water samples collected from the Lake Mattamuskeet National Wildlife Refuge in North Carolina during 2015.

This data release consists of lakebed temperature data collected at the sediment-water interface at the north end of Haskell Lake, Lac du Flambeau Reservation, Wisconsin. Data were collected using a fiber-optic distributed temperature sensor (DTS) during a 5 day period from July 27 to August 1, 2016. Established procedures were followed to estimate lakebed temperatures from the raw DTS...

In cooperation with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ), the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) utilized various field and laboratory methods to determine the presence and concentration of cyanobacteria, cyanotoxins, and taste-and-odor compounds in Texas water bodies. This data release documents the results from water-quality samples collected from 41 water bodies in Texas...

This dataset describes concentrations of select contaminants in groundwater, collected at monitoring wells in the vicinity of the Badger Army Ammunition Plant in Sauk County, Wisconsin, between 2000 - 2018. The data were used to assess trends in contaminant concentrations over time, delineate plume boundaries at various time intervals, and assess the overall monitoring network at the...
