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.

Data for modeling fountain grass and bishop's goutweed in the contiguous US Data for modeling fountain grass and bishop's goutweed in the contiguous US

This data bundle contains the merged data sets to create models for bishop's goutweed and fountaingrass using the VisTrails:SAHM [SAHM 2.1.0]. We developed species distribution models for both species following a workflow designed to balance automation and human intervention to produce models for invasive plant species of concern to U.S. land managers. Location data came from existing...

Data collected about behavioral responses to high temperatures in desert grassland bird in 2007, 2011-2013 Data collected about behavioral responses to high temperatures in desert grassland bird in 2007, 2011-2013

These data include information about the year, date, time, and shrub identifying number where the following data were collected - the number of Grasshopper Sparrows that were flushed from the shrub, the air temperature (not in direct sun), relative humidity (not in direct sun), ground temperature in sun, ground temperature beneath shrub, air temperature in the shrub, and relative...

Precipitation and acoustic monitoring results associated with Arizona 1 and Pinenut uranium mines collected 2015-2016 Precipitation and acoustic monitoring results associated with Arizona 1 and Pinenut uranium mines collected 2015-2016

Acoustic monitoring stations were comprised of Wildlife Acoustics SMBAT2+ bat detectors powered by a 6v 36 AH (Powersonic, Model PS-6062NB) external battery and charged by a 6v solar panel (Brunton Solarflat) with a 6/12 voltage regulator (Rogue Engineering Inc.). Detectors were programmed to turn on at 1800 hours and monitor continuously throughout the night when triggered automatically...

Airborne Magnetic Surveys over Oklahoma, 2017 Airborne Magnetic Surveys over Oklahoma, 2017

Airborne magnetic surveys were conducted in Oklahoma from August 11th, 2017-October 28th, 2017, by Goldak Airborne Surveys. Here we present downloadable flight line data from those surveys in comma-separated values (csv format). Three areas were flown along a draped surface with a nominal survey height above ground of 120 meters. The flight line spacing for these areas was 200 to 400 m...

Genetic detection of Lake Sinai Virus in honey bees (Apis mellifera) and other insects Genetic detection of Lake Sinai Virus in honey bees (Apis mellifera) and other insects

Lake Sinai Viruses (LSV) are common ribonucleic acid (RNA) viruses of honey bees (Apis mellifera) that frequently reach high abundance but are not linked to overt disease. LSVs are genetically heterogeneous and collectively widespread, but despite frequent detection in surveys, the ecological and geographic factors structuring their distribution in A. mellifera are not understood. Even...

Failed Brown Treesnake bait cartridges from an aerially application in Guam, 2018 Failed Brown Treesnake bait cartridges from an aerially application in Guam, 2018

The dataset contains 6 columns of data collected during line transect surveys (Line) that evaluated bait cartridge efficacy for Brown Treesnake control on Guam. Two-person teams recorded all bait cartridges observed while walking the center line of transects in the Habitat Management Unit (HMU). Perpendicular distance (DIST (m)) to cartridges from center line was measured to the nearest...

Data on interannual seed set variation, weather, and reproductive traits for global plants Data on interannual seed set variation, weather, and reproductive traits for global plants

Data were collected on seed production dynamics of long-lived plants, reproductive plant traits of those plant species, and weather variability for sites where those species live. Data include the coefficient of variation in seed production over time, the variation (coefficient of variation or standard deviation) in weather over years, and reproductive traits such as pollination mode and...

Data on cone production in pinyon pine in the Southwestern USA from 2003-2016 Data on cone production in pinyon pine in the Southwestern USA from 2003-2016

Data were collected on pinyon pine cone production using the cone scar method (Redmond et al 2016 Forest Ecology and Management) from 2003-2016 among sites in the Southwest USA. Long-term weather data (Vapor Pressure Deficits and monsoonality) were associated with cone scar data to assess weather-correlates of cone production.

Data Release: Possibility for reverse zoonotic transmission of SARS-CoV-2 to free-ranging wildlife: a case study of bats Data Release: Possibility for reverse zoonotic transmission of SARS-CoV-2 to free-ranging wildlife: a case study of bats

The table illustrates global patterns of betacoronavirus (β-CoV) associations in bats. The table lists bat species in which betacoronaviruses (β-CoVs) were detected, organized by viral subgenera and clade [for Sarbecorviruses], bat family, bat suborder, and general global region where the species of bat occurs. Reference to the published literature sources of information for each row are...

Location and phenology observations for beaked hazelnut (Corylus cornuta), Oregon grape (Mahonia aquifolium), and salal (Gaultheria shallon) in western North America Location and phenology observations for beaked hazelnut (Corylus cornuta), Oregon grape (Mahonia aquifolium), and salal (Gaultheria shallon) in western North America

These data provide the locations and phenological dates of three shrub species: beaked hazelnut (Corylus cornuta), Oregon grape (Mahonia aquifolium), and salal (Gaultheria shallon), collected from various publicly available data sources including data from USFS Forest Inventory and Analysis program, USFS R-6 Ecology Program, US National Park Service, USDI Bureau of Land Management, USA...

Data Release associated with Data Series - DOI/GTN-P Climate and Active-Layer Data Acquired in the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, 1998-2019 (ver. 3.0, March 2021) Data Release associated with Data Series - DOI/GTN-P Climate and Active-Layer Data Acquired in the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, 1998-2019 (ver. 3.0, March 2021)

This release provides data collected by the climate monitoring array of the U.S. Department of the Interior on Federal lands in Arctic Alaska over the period August 1998 to July 2019; this array is part of the Global Terrestrial Network for Permafrost (DOI/GTN-P). In addition to presenting data, this release also describes monitoring, data collection, and quality-control methods. The...

Riparian vegetation, topography, sediment quality and river corridor geomorphology in the Lower Virgin River 2010-2017 Riparian vegetation, topography, sediment quality and river corridor geomorphology in the Lower Virgin River 2010-2017

Plant composition, geomorphic conditions and sediment properties before (2010-2012) and after (2015-2017) the arrival of a biocontrol agent (defoliating beetle in the Diorhabda genus) of invasive Tamarix spp. The data contains four csv files: localization (UTM coordinates of the transects), vegetation and geomorphology, species codes and sediment quality
