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.

USGS Gage at Embudo Creek - Dixon, NM USGS Gage at Embudo Creek - Dixon, NM
A site on the Rio Grande near the town of Embudo, New Mexico, was established as the first USGS training camp for hydrographers. See Publications: Embudo, New Mexico, birthplace of systematic stream gaging | The USGS at Embudo, New Mexico: 125 years of systematic streamgaging in the United States
Aquifers: Map of the Principal Aquifers of the United States Aquifers: Map of the Principal Aquifers of the United States
The areal and vertical location of the major aquifers is fundamental to the determination of groundwater availability for the Nation. The map, which is derived from the Ground Water Atlas of the United States, indicates the areal extent of the uppermost principal aquifers on a national scale.
Surface-water data for Wyoming Surface-water data for Wyoming
Real-time, daily, peak-flow, field measurements, and statistics of current and historical data that describe stream levels, streamflow (discharge), reservoir and lake levels, surface-water quality, and rainfall in Wyoming. Surface-water data are collected and stored as either discrete field-water-level measurements or as continuous time-series data from automated recorders.
Groundwater data for Wyoming Groundwater data for Wyoming
Data from wells in Wyoming; well location data includes information such as latitude and longitude, well depth, and aquifer. Groundwater level data are collected and stored as either discrete field-water-level measurements or as continuous time-series data from automated recorders.
Water-quality data for Wyoming Water-quality data for Wyoming
Chemical, physical, and biological properties of water, sediment, and tissue samples from Wyoming. Water-quality data are collected as either discrete field measurements or as continuous time-series data from automated recorders that continuously record physical and chemical characteristics including pH, specific conductance, temperature, and dissolved oxygen.
Data Release for The sensitivity of ecosystem service models to choices of input data and spatial resolution Data Release for The sensitivity of ecosystem service models to choices of input data and spatial resolution
Although ecosystem service (ES) modeling has progressed rapidly in the last 10-15 years, comparative studies on data and model selection effects have become more common only recently. Such studies have drawn mixed conclusions about whether different data and model choices yield divergent results. In this study we apply inter- and intra-model comparisons to address these questions at...
Landsat Burned Area Essential Climate Variable products for the conterminous United States (1984 -2015) Landsat Burned Area Essential Climate Variable products for the conterminous United States (1984 -2015)
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has developed and implemented an automated algorithm that identifies burned areas in temporally-dense time series of Landsat image stacks to produce the Landsat Burned Area Essential Climate Variable (BAECV) products. The algorithm makes use of predictors derived from individual Landsat scenes, lagged reference conditions, and change metrics between the...
Streamflow and water-quality data from all surface-water sites currently sampled in the WLCI area Streamflow and water-quality data from all surface-water sites currently sampled in the WLCI area
Streamflow and water-quality data from all surface-water sites in data collection network in the WLCI area
Water quality, atmospheric nitrogen deposition and herbaceous plant species richness in the USA, 1970-2011. Water quality, atmospheric nitrogen deposition and herbaceous plant species richness in the USA, 1970-2011.
This data release is comprised of a data set that contains specific conductance and chloride concentration data in HUC-8 watersheds that intersect with areas with unconventional oil and gas plays, and a data set that contains atmospheric nitrogen deposition rates and herbaceous plant species richness values across sample sites in the USA.
