Victoria G. Stengel
Victoria Stengel is a Geographer with the USGS Geology, Energy & Minerals (GEM) Science Center in Reston, VA.
Victoria leads geospatial and earth observation method development on interdisciplinary geoscience teams collaborating across USGS science centers, mission areas, and interagency efforts.
Education and Certifications
M.S. in Geography, Texas State University, May 2014. Victoria's graduate work focused in Geocomputation, LiDAR, multispectral remote sensing, and watershed scale surface hydrology modeling
B.S. in Geography-Geographic Information Science, with a minor in Business Administration, Texas State University, Cum laude, Gamma Theta Upsilon and Alpha Chi honor societies
Texas State University Certificate in Water Resource Policy
Science and Products
Remote Sensing Techniques for Characterizing Energy Resources in Waste
Mapping Conservation Management Efforts to Increase Coordination in the Rio Grande Basin
Data associated with using lidar and earth observation temporal analysis to explore and characterize uranium mining on the south Texas landscape
Visible and Near Infrared (VNIR) and Short Wavelength Infrared (SWIR) Spectra of Select Rock Cores and Waste Material from Nine Uranium Mine Sites in Karnes and Live Oak Counties, Texas
Surface-water characteristics and phytoplankton taxonomy in selected north Texas reservoirs using biological, hyperspectral, and water-quality methods, 2019-2020
Data Compiled on historical water use, spatial land disturbance, aquifer disturbance and uranium produced by In Situ Recovery of Uranium from Sandstone Hosted Uranium Deposits in the South Texas Coastal Plain, USA
Contributing zones of the San Antonio, Barton Springs, and Northern segments of the Edwards Aquifer
Combined Occurrence Frequency of Wind Speeds and Precipitation Amounts Conducive to Dust Dispersion from Disturbed Mine and Mill Sites in the United States, 2007?16
Conterminous U.S. Air Stagnation Index, Number of Days, 2007–2016
2015 Irrigated acres feature class for the Upper Rio Grande Basin, New Mexico and Texas, United States and Chihuahua, Mexico
Data Associated with Uranium Background Concentrations at Homestake Mining Company Superfund Site near Milan, New Mexico, July 2016 through October 2016
Hyperspectral (VNIR-SWIR) analysis of roll front uranium host rocks and industrial minerals from Karnes and Live Oak Counties, Texas Coastal Plain
VNIR-SWIR (400–2500 nm) reflectance measurements were made on the surfaces of various cores, cuttings and sample splits of sedimentary rocks from the Tertiary Jackson Group, and Catahoula, Oakville and Goliad Formations. These rocks vary in composition and texture from mudstone and claystone to sandstone and are known host rocks for roll front uranium occurrences in Karnes and Live Oak Counties, T
Mapping abandoned uranium mine features using Worldview-3 imagery in portions of Karnes, Atascosa and Live Oak Counties, Texas
Mapping the probability of freshwater algal blooms with various spectral indices and sources of training data
Spectral mixture analysis for surveillance of harmful algal blooms (SMASH): A field-, laboratory-, and satellite-based approach to identifying cyanobacteria genera from remotely sensed data
A novel method for conducting a geoenvironmental assessment of undiscovered ISR-amenable uranium Resources: Proof-of-concept in the Texas Coastal Plain
A methodology to assess the historical environmental footprint of in-situ recovery (ISR) of uranium: A demonstration in the Goliad Sand in the Texas Coastal Plain, USA
Characterization of peak streamflows and flood inundation of selected areas in southeastern Texas and southwestern Louisiana from the August and September 2017 flood resulting from Hurricane Harvey
The importance of parameterization when simulating the hydrologic response of vegetative land-cover change
