Data

This geospatial dataset compiles, in digital form, geologic and geophysical data for the Portola 30’x 60’ quadrangle, located in the northern Sierra Nevada, California. This geologic map of the Portola 30’x 60’ quadrangle integrates decades of published and unpublished mapping in the northern Sierra Nevada. In conjunction with geophysical data, including more than 1000 new gravity...

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Wetlands Aquatic Research Center worked alongside the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) to amalgamate over three decades of relocation trawling records. It is USACE's mission to provide safe, reliable, efficient , and environmentally sustainable waterborne transportation systems (channels, harbors, and...

The USGS developed methods and results to improve estimation of the aquifer system, location, and quantity of private-domestic well groundwater withdrawals and the self-supplied domestic population of the Virginia Coastal Plain. This USGS data release includes (1) tabular datasets with the estimated aquifer distribution of 8,264 private-domestic wells aggregated by locality/county, USGS...

We present a tabular data set representing values used to evaluate intrinsic factors of breeding dispersal and annual survival for northern Great Plains piping plovers (Charadrius melodus) from 2014 – 2019. Data was collected on wetlands and on the Missouri River in North Dakota, South Dakota, and Montana. Data includes breeding state specific observations of adults. The associated...

The land application of drill fluids is governed by rules established in the Oklahoma Administrative Rules (165:10-7) and permitted by the Oklahoma Corporation Commission (OCC). While data on the volume and location of land application is publicly accessible through the OCC's website, much of the information is in scanned form documents which limits the operability of these data. This...

This dataset includes measurements of physical and biological parameters of two restored tidal wetlands that utilized beneficial reuse material (Hamilton Restoration, Sonoma Baylands), and compares their attributes to two wetlands that have been restored through natural tidal sediment accretion (Tolay, Carl’s Marsh) and one wetland that had never been diked (Pinkston Slough). Throughout...

This dataset represents photointerpretation of live tree presence and raw pixel values from 500 randomly selected Sentinel-2 pixels across four fires in the state of California. This dataset was used to run random forest models to predict live tree presence in the Cabin Fire, Rough Fire, Pier Fire, and Schaeffer Fire at 1, 3, and 5 years post fire.

Acoustic Telemetry is gaining popularity for use in fisheries research as a method to estimate survival and observe behaviors of native fish species. Methodology for capture and tagging of fish is typically context and species-specific, requiring a case by case basis for best practices to maximize survival of tagged individuals. This dataset includes acoustic detection data from 320...

These data were compiled to document changes to plant community composition following large-scale energy development. The objective of our study was to evaluate plant diversity responses to energy development at multiple scales, and to compare plant diversity within solar panel microsites. These data were collected between 2023 and 2024 in the Mojave Desert, approximately 50 km northeast...

Data collection of spectrophotometric data regarding levels of serum cortisol, serum protein, brain acetylcholinesterase, and brain protein biomarkers were obtained from blood and brain tissues of Northern leopard frogs exposed to neonicotinoid insecticides in the laboratory.

In 2019, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Research Drilling Program, based in Nevada, subcontracted with WOOD PLC to drill and construct borehole USGS 150 (USGS site 433521112581801). The borehole was continuously cored from approximately 18.3 to 1399 feet below land surface, with the primary objective of gathering geological, geophysical, and seismic data to enhance models for...

These data include capture and survey information for a meadow population of endangered Sierra Nevada yellow-legged frogs (Rana sierrae) at Yosemite National Park, California, USA, 2003-2022. The data also include remotely sensed weather covariates related to winter severity (annual April snow water equivalent) and drought severity (Palmer drought severity index) to evaluate their...
