Data

Data represent presence/absence of planktic foraminifer species in samples from Carters Grove, Virginia, and the Phred1 core located west of Vero Beach, Florida.

These data include a collection of 3-dimensional (3D) point clouds from three New Mexico landscapes and associated field-collected validation data accompanying each scan. The data were collected in fall of 2022-2023 across three montane New Mexico landscapes - similar in climate but differing in disturbance histories. Landscapes include a intensely and repeatedly burned shrubfield, a...

Roads and bridges are vulnerable to a range of stressors, such as flooding, heat waves, and other extreme events. The probability of these stressors impacting roads and bridges cannot be exactly calculated due to various uncertainties related to the scientific understanding of future environmental conditions. Resilient design methods find ways to account for the uncertainty in various...

This dataset includes measurements of shell properties (e.g. density, volume, and weight) of the ostracode species Paracyprideis pseudopunctillata (subphylum Crustacea), which inhabits the continental shelves of the Arctic Ocean. Using microfocus X-ray computed tomography (microXCT) scans, we generated detailed morphometric measurements of specimens collected from both surface and down...

We established a network of 121 plots distributed within the 2020 SQF, 2020 Rattlesnake, and 2021 KNP complex fire footprints (extracted from Fire and Resource Assessment Program (FRAP), https://frap.fire.ca.gov), as well as outside the fire perimeters to provide an unburned comparison. These plots were combined from two projects: a fire and fuels study (F&F) and the USGS sequoia...

Future sea-level rise poses a risk to mangrove forests. To better understand potential vulnerability, we developed a numerical model of soil elevation for mangrove forests. We used the model to generate projections of elevation and mangrove forest composition change under six sea-level rise scenarios from 2020 through 2150. We employed a data-driven modeling approach, utilizing new and...

The diatom biochronology of ODP Holes 682A and 688E provides a nearly complete offshore reference section to correspond with onshore studies of the Miocene age materials of the East Pisco Basin of Southern Peru, which is known for its excellent preservation of fossil vertebrates. From these holes a nearly complete sequence of low latitude and northeastern Pacific diatoms has been...

Results of statistical analyses of nontidal and tidal station measurements of suspended sediment concentrations in the Chesapeake Bay and watershed, collected from 1984-2021 by Chesapeake Bay Program and partners and the U.S. Geological Survey. Original measurements were retrieved from online data repositories.

This dataset includes literature-derived ecological data from tidal saline wetlands across the United States, Canada, and Mexico for the following ecosystem properties: canopy height, aboveground biomass, productivity, soil carbon density, and soil carbon accumulation rates.

Sediment accretion measurements were made at the SMARTX warming experiment at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center's Global Change Research Wetland. Feldspar marker horizons were established at the beginning of the experiment in 2016 in the warming plots, and were subsequently buried over time by wetland accretion of both organic and inorganic matter. These data include the...

This data release contains historical SnowModel outputs for the Willow Creek and Big Thompson, CO watersheds and surrounding area. Simulated outputs were produced on a 30 meter (m) geospatial grid and forced using meteorology from the National Land Data Assimilation System (NLDAS-2). These simulations used daily snow water equivalent (SWE) time-series from 13 National Resources...

Data shows radioisotope measurements (Pb-210 and Cs-137) of sediment cores from four coastal wetlands along the Chesapeake Bay (one core from each site). Cores were sectioned every 1-2 cm depth.
