Northeastern U.S. Suspended Particulate Matter Product, Derived from Landsat 5-8 (2000–2020) Northeastern U.S. Suspended Particulate Matter Product, Derived from Landsat 5-8 (2000–2020)

This dataset provides high spatial resolution (30 m) raster products of Suspended Particulate Matter (SPM) for the Northeastern United States over the past two decades (2000–2020). The product is derived from Landsat 5–8 using a particle composition-adaptive SPM retrieval algorithm (Teng et al., 2025) and is designed to resolve fine-scale coastal sediment dynamics that are not well...

Red Spruce Forest Condition in Virginia Northern Flying Squirrel Distribution Red Spruce Forest Condition in Virginia Northern Flying Squirrel Distribution

These data are forest stand structure observations for high elevation red spruce and northern hardwood forest communities in the central Appalachians of Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia associated with known Virginia northern flying squirrel (Glaucomys sabrinus fuscus) presence points and user generated random points. Data were extracted from U.S. Forest Service TreeMap spatial model...

Dissolved organic and inorganic carbon in a Southeast Alaskan watershed (2021) Dissolved organic and inorganic carbon in a Southeast Alaskan watershed (2021)

Data from high frequency sampling of multiple carbon forms were collected in a predominately rain-fed watershed in Southeast Alaska during the main run-off season (May-October 2021). The dataset includes hourly measurements of stream temperature, specific conductivity, turbidity, and fluorescent dissolved organic matter, point samples of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), alkalinity...

Red Spruce Crop Tree Release After 20 Years in West Virginia Red Spruce Crop Tree Release After 20 Years in West Virginia

In 2005, a silvicultural restoration study was implemented to observe the response of individual red spruce to various percent basal area (BA; m2) removal treatments of competing hardwood species. These treatments consisted of four different basal area removals: control was 0 percent, low was about 33 percent, medium was about 67 percent, and high was about 100 percent around individual...

Freshwater fish and mussel projections in the Northeastern United States at the HUC12 scale under different climate and land use scenarios Freshwater fish and mussel projections in the Northeastern United States at the HUC12 scale under different climate and land use scenarios

These data comprise the results of an analysis to 1. develop freshwater fish and mussel models using survey occurrence data, land use data, stream flow data, and stream temperature data within the Northeast United states, 2. predict the impacts of climate change on vulnerable groups of freshwater fish and mussel species, and 3. assess the potential for different management interventions...

Abundance, occupancy and habitat data recordings for Coqui Llaneros near Caño Tiburones; Arrecibo, Puerto Rico Abundance, occupancy and habitat data recordings for Coqui Llaneros near Caño Tiburones; Arrecibo, Puerto Rico

The Coquí Llanero (Eleutherodactylus juanariveroi) is one of twelve remaining species of Eleutherodactylus frogs endemic to Puerto Rico. They are known only from three isolated populations separated from each other by ~30 km: Caño Tiburones, Arecibo; Sabana Seca, Toa Baja, and Carolina. These frogs are cultural icons and hold prominent roles in the energy flow of the island’s tropical...

Data Examining the Effects of Disturbance Type and Timing, Winter Snow Manipulations, and Plant Functional Traits on Plant Communities Within Restored Temperate Grasslands in Wisconsin from 2017–2023 Data Examining the Effects of Disturbance Type and Timing, Winter Snow Manipulations, and Plant Functional Traits on Plant Communities Within Restored Temperate Grasslands in Wisconsin from 2017–2023

This dataset includes data from a study examining the effects of managed disturbance regimes, winter snow depth manipulations, and plant functional traits on plant communities within restored temperates over a seven-year period. The “Treatments.csv” file details the experimental design, which involved eight blocks, each containing four plots. Each plot was subjected to one of four...

Model Outputs Showing Optimized Grassland Restoration Sites in the Great Plains Region of Kansas Model Outputs Showing Optimized Grassland Restoration Sites in the Great Plains Region of Kansas

Ecological restoration is essential to meet global biodiversity conservation goals. Given limited conservation budgets, deciding where to restore habitat is a key challenge for the coming decade. This dataset includes optimal restoration sites selected from multiple restoration model scenarios. We developed a modeling approach to maximize conservation benefit/restoration cost ratios to...

Macroinvertebrate and redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss newberrii) diet data for watercourses in the Goose Lake Basin, Oregon, U.S.A., 2024 Macroinvertebrate and redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss newberrii) diet data for watercourses in the Goose Lake Basin, Oregon, U.S.A., 2024

We collected aquatic macroinvertebrate and redband trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss newberrii) diet data in the Oregon portion of the Goose Lake Basin. Data were collected by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and Oregon State University (OSU) to monitor prey communities in the Basin, and to relate observed prey abundances to specific habitat features. Sampling was conducted based on previous...

Residential Survey to Understand Perceptions of Wildfire Risk and Management in Guam Between 2019 to 2021 Residential Survey to Understand Perceptions of Wildfire Risk and Management in Guam Between 2019 to 2021

An online survey of 189 residents in Guam was conducted between 2019 and 2021 to understand perceptions pertaining to wildfire risk, current wildfire management, and physical effects. This data collection aimed to understand what Guam residents think about wildfires, what they know about wildfire management, if there are relationships between demographics and accuracy of perceptions.

Adaptation Planting Projects Survey Results Across the Midwest Lake States in 2021-2022 Adaptation Planting Projects Survey Results Across the Midwest Lake States in 2021-2022

Climate-driven stressors, non-native insects, and emerging diseases increasingly impact forest health across the Great Lakes region. Forest management strategies are required to mitigate these impacts. We examined one strategy, tree planting for adaptation to climate and emerald ash borer (hereafter referred to as adaptation plantings), as an approach for establishing tree species...
