Data

Staff of USGS Science Centers in Region 7: Upper Colorado Basin collect a wide variety of natural resource data types including spatial, geologic, hydrologic, and biologic. Data included in USGS-series publications that are not publicly available in USGS databases are published in Data Releases. Short descriptions and links to Data Releases produced by Region 7 Science Centers are shown below.

DNA sequences used to analyze evolutionary rates of transient receptor potential (Trp) genes in tetrapods

The dataset consists of two file types. The first type consists of sets of orthologous gene sequences of the transient receptor potential (Trp) superfamily of genes in FASTA format. The sequence data were obtained from the Gene database of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene), aligned at the codon level, and trimmed to a defined region...

Digital Data of Structural Contours from Previously Published USGS Mississippi Embayment Studies

This digital dataset is a result from the goal within the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program to convert surficial data that were previously published in non-digital format to digital, vector-based data suitable for use by the public and in USGS studies. The objective of the data conversion is to reproduce the original published mapping with...

Supplemental Results and Code from North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) Integrated Species Distribution Model for Tricolored Bat

These data contain supplemental results and model code from the North American Bat Monitoring Program's (NABat) integrated species distribution model (iSDM) for the tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus). These data also serve as supplemental results, source data used to create figures, and model code to the companion manuscript: "Integrated distribution modeling resolves asynchrony...

Data release for An early Holocene wet period from the southwestern U.S.

Multiple generations of spring-fed streams traversed ~800 km2 of the Las Vegas Valley in southern Nevada between ~10.9 and 8.5 ka, depositing an extensive tufa network. The scale of this network and diversity of tufa morphologies is novel in North America and offers an opportunity to obtain quantitative paleoclimate data for the region during the early Holocene. We determined isotopic...

Digital data of isopach contours and salt extent boundaries from previously published Regional Aquifer System Analysis (RASA) studies on the Northern Great Plains of Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, and Nebraska

This GIS dataset presents contours and maps from previously published interpretations of hydrogeologic units of the northern Great Plains by Downey (1986). The original source publication was completed as a component of the United States Geological Survey’s (USGS) Regional Aquifer System Analysis (RASA) professional paper series. Isopach contour maps in this study delineate the upper...

Land use and socioeconomic time-series reveal legacy of redlining on present-day gentrification within a growing United States city.

Home Owners’ Loan Corporation (HOLC) maps illustrated patterns of segregation in United States cites in the 1930s. As the causes and drivers of demographic and land use segregation vary over years, these maps provide an important spatial lens in determining how patterns of segregation spatially and temporally developed during the course of the past century. Using a high-resolution land...

Photographic sequence of brooding Burmese python (Python bivittatus) and associated temperature of record-sized nest in Big Cypress National Preserve, FL, June to August 2022

Select photographic sequence of a Burmese Python (Python bivittatus) nesting in the wild within a concrete pipe from 01 June 2022 through 01 August 2022 in Big Cypress National Preserve within the Greater Everglades Ecosystem, Florida, USA. This python was tracked to an area of abandoned construction pipes and discovered inside to have oviposited. Throughout incubation, the python was...

North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) OneHealth

This dataset documents the results of large-scale surveillance efforts to assess coronavirus prevalence in North American bats. Wildlife monitoring is critical for establishing disease baselines and identifying key factors that inform conservation strategies aimed at reducing pathogen exposure among wildlife, domestic animals, and humans. Reports of SARS-CoV-2 in free-ranging wildlife in...

North American Bat Monitoring Program Knitted Grid and Multi-scale Grid Covariates

This data release contains spatial and tabular products that provide a multi-scale, continuous North American Bat Monitoring Program (NABat) master sample grid surface and a suite of ecologically-relevant covariates. This continuous surface, called the "knitted grid," is a combination of 5 kilometer (km), 10km, and 50km master sample grids for the Contiguous United States (CONUS), Alaska...

USGS Isotope: A Database of Radiogenic and Stable Isotopic Data

USGS Isotope is a database of compiled radiogenic and stable isotopic data from rocks and critical mineral deposits. The data set contains published elemental concentrations, isotopic ratios, analytical information, sample metadata including location, and source citations. Analytical techniques represented include Sm-Nd, U-Th-Pb, Rb-Sr, Lu-Hf, Re-Os, O, and S isotopic systems. Data...

Data on tiger salamander body mass, behavioral activity, and insecticide residues

We evaluated potential effects of deltamethrin and fipronil on tiger salamander (Ambystoma mavortium) body mass, behavioral activity, and insecticide tissue residues. Insecticides were applied at realistic concentrations in mesocosms mimicking prairie dog burrows, which are used as refuge by salamanders under natural conditions. Treatments included (1) deltamethrin dust, (2) prairie dog...

Isotopic data and trace element data for siliceous sinter geyserite deposits, El Tatio Geyser Field, Chile

This dataset contains U-Th isotope ratios and trace element abundances for hydrothermal siliceous sinter deposits from several geyser localities in El Tatio Geyser Field, Chile.
