Component 1: Data and monitoring gap analysis Component 1: Data and monitoring gap analysis
The goal of Component 1 is to identify available data and data gaps in the Texas coastal region and to establish a plan for obtaining data critical for successful coastal flood analysis in these regions. This component is supporting the expansion and improvement of data observations for inland, coastal, and ocean systems.

Assessment of a new GeoAI foundation model for floodinundation mapping Assessment of a new GeoAI foundation model for floodinundation mapping
Vision foundation models are a new frontier in GeoAI research because of their potential to enable powerful image analysis by analyzing and extracting important image features from vast amounts of geospatial data. This paper evaluates the performance of the first-of-its-kind geospatial foundation model, IBM-NASA’s Prithvi, to support a crucial geospatial analysis task: flood inundation...

USGS invasive carp database management and integration support USGS invasive carp database management and integration support
Invasive carp tracking, monitoring, and contracted removal will continue throughout the Illinois River and upper Mississippi River as part of an adaptive management effort to mitigate, control, and contain invasive carp. Other fish will also be tracked to maintain a holistic view of the transmitter distribution in the Upper IWW. To facilitate these actions, a need to compile and analyze...

A proposed methodology for conducting threats assessments within the Great Lakes Coregonines restoration framework A proposed methodology for conducting threats assessments within the Great Lakes Coregonines restoration framework
This document serves to fulfill the Coregonine Threats Assessment Science Team’s charge of providing a written recommendation for a methodology to conduct threats assessments for Great Lakes coregonines within the Coregonine Restoration Framework (CRF). Through a series of team meetings that included presentations by experts on five candidate threats assessment frameworks followed by...

An inventory of three-dimensional geologic models—U.S. Geological Survey, 2004–22 An inventory of three-dimensional geologic models—U.S. Geological Survey, 2004–22
A database of spatial footprints and characteristics of three-dimensional geological models that were constructed by the U.S. Geological Survey between 2004 and 2022 was compiled as part of ongoing development of subsurface geologic information by the USGS National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program. This initial inventory resulted in the compilation of 38 three-dimensional geological...

The lunar cratering chronology The lunar cratering chronology
This chapter provides an introduction to crater-size frequency distribution (CSFD) measurements and presents a review of the work performed on dating lunar geological units using CSFDs since the last New Views of the Moon volume (2006), including various volcanic and tectonic features, as well as individual impact craters. At the end of the chapter, implications for the new CSFD age...

Hidden system identification: Basin modeling as a tool for examining sedimentary geothermal resource potential Hidden system identification: Basin modeling as a tool for examining sedimentary geothermal resource potential
Three-dimensional (3D) geologic and temperature models have been developed for the onshore U.S. Gulf Coast. The results from these models identify areas of moderate- to high-temperature (90°-150°C and >150°C; respectively) geothermal resources at depths
