Data

Values Mapping for Planning in Regional Ecosystems (VaMPIRE) is a Public Participatory GIS tool developed by the U.S. Geological Survey in collaboration with the Bureau of Land Management to aid in gathering information from the public about their values for public lands and waters. This contains data from 121 surveys returned in 2024 for the Mojave Trails National Monument in California...

Habitat models can help inform land management, but are not always used where they could be most helpful. In this study, researchers aimed to identify specific actions that could foster greater use of habitat models for managing rare and invasive plants on public lands. The researchers gathered data through surveys and expert elicitation workshops with modelers and model users. One...

This report summarizes the dating results from sedimentary deposits sampled by the St. Petersburg Coastal and Marine Science Center and analyzed at the USGS Luminescence Geochronology Laboratory. Within this report, we detail the luminescence measurement, equivalent dose determination, and dating-related calculations. We recommend that this report be included as the supplementary...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...
